Child Support Calculation Worksheet

IMPORTANT: THIS IS A PREPARATION GUIDE — NOT THE OFFICIAL COURT WORKSHEET

Wyoming requires the use of official form DIVCP-13 (Child Support Computation Form & Net Income Calculation) for child support calculations.
This template provides the substantive content and calculation methodology to help you
prepare — but you must transfer your figures to the official worksheet before filing.
The official form is available at https://www.wyocourts.gov/legal-help-by-topic/child-support/.
Do not file this document directly with the court.
