In general, child support is a percentage of income after taxes and insurance. In Illinois, it's 20% of net income for one child, 25% for two, etc. Income includes almost everything, including overtime, unemployment benefits and workers compensation, but not welfare payments or SSI.

MD child support is calculated according to basic cost of living (COL) and the preset tables configured by the department of child and family services. Since the cost of living is different in every state, child support payments will be calculated differently from state to state.

The father should have documentation that states the original support order was cancelled for whatever reason. When they come calling, all he has to do is show them the document. If he does not a document stating the original order was cancelled then he needs to call MD to get that faxed to him.
