The applicant mother sought retroactive and prospective child support from the respondent father for their six-year-old daughter with Autism Spectrum Disorder.
The father had been paying $686 per month since June 2020 on a temporary without prejudice basis, despite significant income increases.
The court determined that retroactive child support was appropriate from the date of effective notice (December 11, 2019) and calculated arrears of $10,157 in table support plus $1,272.02 in section 7 expenses, payable over 24 months.
Prospective child support was set at $789 per month based on the father's adjusted income of $88,545.24 (after deducting union dues), with the father paying 71.25% of section 7 expenses.
The father's request for a reduction based on travel costs to exercise parenting time was denied as he failed to complete the required undue hardship analysis, though he was permitted to bring such a claim in the future.
