Frequently Asked Questions

How is child support calculated in Prince Edward Island?
Child support in Prince Edward Island is calculated using the Federal Child Support Guidelines. The base amount (table amount) is determined by the paying parent's gross annual income and the number of children. Additional amounts may be ordered for special or extraordinary expenses under section 7 of the Guidelines, which are shared proportionally to each parent's income. Divorcepath automates these calculations and applies Prince Edward Island's provincial tax rates to determine the net financial impact.
Where do I file for child support in Prince Edward Island?
Family law matters in PEI are heard in the Supreme Court (Family Section) in Charlottetown and Summerside.
What forms do I need for child support in Prince Edward Island?
In Prince Edward Island, you will typically need a financial statement (Financial Statement (Form 70D)) and an application or motion for child support. Divorcepath can help auto-populate these forms with data from your support calculation, reducing manual data entry and the risk of errors.
What if we have shared custody in Prince Edward Island?
When a child spends at least 40% of the time with each parent, this is considered shared custody under the Federal Child Support Guidelines.

Divorcepath's calculator handles shared custody calculations automatically for Prince Edward Island families.
How are special expenses (section 7) handled?
Special or extraordinary expenses (childcare, medical/dental insurance premiums, health-related expenses, education, extracurricular activities, and post-secondary education) are shared between parents in proportion to their incomes, after accounting for any tax credits or deductions related to the expense. Divorcepath automatically calculates the net cost and proportional sharing for Prince Edward Island families, including Prince Edward Island-specific tax credits.
