now that we are in a shared income CS calculation system (or will in 2 weeks)
what will happen to the COLA?
How do you calculate the cola of a CS order when you use 2 parents income ?

Spinner...what kind of info do you have on the new guidelines? It is my understanding that you have to file to imput both incomes, and it is not done automatically.

Right?

well I don't know much about the cola part although from other states it seems that they apply the cola just like the old way.

as far as new guideline, there is a calculator on the DHS site.

simply new calculation are done for new cases and for others in 2008 EXCEPT that if a judge has a case in front of him that somehow requires new calculation he will use the new guideline.

up to you to fit in it :)
