Texas is a community-property state that sets child support with a fixed statutory formula, so the guideline numbers are more predictable than in many states. Under Texas Family Code §154, support is a percentage of the paying parent's monthly net resources — 20% for one child, 25% for two, 30% for three, and up to 40% for five or more — applied only to the first $11,700 of net resources, the current cap.
Spousal maintenance is harder to qualify for in Texas than alimony in many states. A spouse generally must show they lack the property to meet their minimum reasonable needs, plus a qualifying ground such as a marriage of 10 years or more, family violence, a disability, or caring for a disabled child. If ordered, the amount is capped at the lesser of $5,000 per month or 20% of the payer's average monthly gross income, and the duration is tied to the length of the marriage.
Property is divided in a "just and right" manner — often, but not always, equal. Only community property (generally what was acquired during the marriage) is divided; each spouse's separate property stays with its owner.
Texas applies a guideline percentage to the paying parent's monthly net resources: 20% for one child, 25% for two, 30% for three, 35% for four, and 40% for five or more, up to a cap of $11,700 in net resources. Our free Texas child support calculator shows each step and cites Texas Family Code §154.
The guideline percentage applies only to the first $11,700 of monthly net resources (the current cap). Above that, a court can order more based on the child's proven needs, but it is not automatic.
If a spouse qualifies, maintenance is capped at the lesser of $5,000 per month or 20% of the payer's average monthly gross income, with the duration set by the length of the marriage. Eligibility is limited — our Texas spousal maintenance calculator screens the requirements and shows the caps.
No. Texas divides the community estate in a way the court deems 'just and right,' which is often roughly equal but can be unequal based on the circumstances. Separate property is not divided at all.
