Child Support for Custodial Mothers and Fathers: 1997

Report Number P60-212

Introduction

Child Support for Custodial Mothers and Fathers: 1997
Download Child Support for Custodial Mothers and Fathers: 1997 [PDF - <1.0 MB]

This report presents data on parents with children whose other parent is not living with the family. It focuses on the child support income that custodial parents reported receiving during the calendar year prior to the survey, as well as other support provided, such as health insurance and noncash support. Because child support is frequently ordered until a child is 21 years old or completes college, this report specifically includes own children under 21, rather than the usual definition used by the Census Bureau of children under 18 years of age. Some children living with neither biological parent, such as those living with grandparents or foster parents, may also be eligible for child support but are not included in this report.
