visitation credit

Read a random definition: one-subject rule

A quick definition of visitation credit:

Visitation credit: When parents separate, the parent who does not have custody of the child may still spend time with them. This is called visitation. Visitation credit is a reduction in the amount of child support that the noncustodial parent has to pay. The reduction reflects the amount of time the child spends with the noncustodial parent. This means that if the noncustodial parent spends more time with the child, they will have to pay less child support.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Visitation credit is a reduction in child support payments that takes into account the amount of time the child spends living with the noncustodial parent.

For example, if a child spends every other weekend with their noncustodial parent, the court may order a visitation credit to reduce the amount of child support the noncustodial parent is required to pay. This is because the noncustodial parent is already contributing to the child's expenses during the time they are together.

Another example would be if a child spends half of their time with each parent. In this case, the visitation credit would be significant, as both parents are contributing equally to the child's expenses.

Overall, visitation credit is a way to ensure that both parents are contributing to the financial needs of their child, while also taking into account the time they spend together.
