About this guide
This guide explains recognised care and how ongoing care arrangements affect a child support formula assessment.
Key points
Recognised care is generally based on the child’s ongoing living arrangements, often measured by nights of care. Tell Inland Revenue when an ongoing arrangement changes and keep records if care is disputed.
