This bill eliminates the "cross credit" mechanism that previously allowed courts to credit child support payments between parents when both had custody obligations to each other. The changes simplify child support calculations by removing one section of law entirely and adjusting how courts handle shared parenting situations, though the basic framework allowing reduced child support when a child spends significant time with the non-custodial parent remains in place.
