Guideline child support scenarios at $750 a week
The paying parent earns $750 a week ($3,250.00 a month) in every cell below. The other parent's monthly income changes across rows, and the number of children changes across columns; both genuinely change the result.Every figure is computed with the real Oregon guideline engine, the same one behind the full calculator, not a lookup table built for this page.
| Other parent's income | 1 child | 2 children | 3 children |
|---|---|---|---|
| No reported income | $599.00 | $868.00 | $1,022.00 |
| $2,000 a month | $497.68 | $718.66 | $843.08 |
| $4,000 a month | $409.75 | $586.38 | $682.31 |
| $6,000 a month | $363.70 | $518.31 | $601.25 |
Every dollar figure is a monthly amount, the presumptive guideline result before add-ons like child care or health insurance and before any court deviation. "Not available" means the engine behind this site declined to compute that specific combination rather than guess; the reason is shown next to it.
Zero overnights on a continuous curve
Oregon does not have an arrangement selector that turns the parenting-time adjustment off. It uses a continuous logistic curve for both parents, so the credit is always defined, and a zero-overnight payer sits at the starting endpoint of that curve. The credit there is the smallest value the curve produces, but it is a point on the curve, not an absence of one.
This page family fixes the paying parent at zero overnights, the sole-custody baseline, and discloses it because any overnight would move the obligation along the curve immediately. At $750 a week the self-support reserve has also receded enough that all three child-count columns respond to income.
Reading the curve endpoint at this income
Every row below uses the same $750-a-week payer income at zero overnights. The other parent income moves all three columns at this income, so the table reads like a conventional income-shares grid.
A reader with any overnights should expect the continuous curve to shift the result, because Oregon does not wait for a band threshold before a credit begins.
What this estimate includes
- The zero-overnight endpoint of the continuous credit curve
- The self-support reserve, receded at this income
- Results for 1, 2, or 3 children across four other-parent incomes
What it leaves out
- A banded parenting-time adjustment, which Oregon does not use
- Child care and health insurance add-ons
- Court-ordered deviations from the guideline amount
Worth knowing
The continuous curve is the reason the baseline disclosure is phrased carefully: zero overnights is a point on a curve, not the absence of the credit system.
At this income the reserve has receded, so the page reads like a standard income-shares grid, with the curve endpoint held constant.
Frequently asked questions
What does zero overnights mean on a continuous curve?
It means the payer sits at the starting endpoint of the Oregon credit curve. The credit is at its smallest value there, but it is still defined, because the curve never turns off.
Why does this page fix zero overnights?
Zero overnights is the sole-custody baseline and the common paying-parent case. Oregon expresses custody through the credit curve, so this page holds the payer at that endpoint and discloses it.
Does the other parent income change the result at $750 a week?
Yes. For one child the obligation falls from $599 to $363.70 as the other parent income rises from none to $6,000 a month, with the two and three-child columns moving similarly.
How does one overnight change the result?
Because the curve is continuous, a single overnight moves the credit immediately, even by a small amount. There is no minimum band to cross first.
Is the self-support reserve still active at this income?
It is part of the Oregon structure, but by $750 a week it has receded enough that all three child-count columns respond fully to the other parent income.
Where can I run a case with real overnights?
The full Oregon child support calculator on this site accepts overnights, and the OAR materials linked in the sources describe the continuous credit.
About the numbers on this page
Every figure in the table above comes from running the real Oregon child support engine on this site, the same engine and data pack behind the full Oregon child support calculator. Nothing on this page is a separate estimate or a reimplementation of the math. See the sources below for the statutes and official worksheets behind the Oregon guideline.
