Section 425.145 - Establishment of child support obligation using low-income schedule if economic circumstances of obligor limit ability to pay; publication of schedule by Administrative Office of the Courts1. If the court determines that the total economic circumstances of an obligor limit his or her ability to pay a child support obligation in the amount determined pursuant to NAC 425.140, the child support obligation must be established by using a low-income schedule which is based on the current federal poverty guidelines, as determined by the Secretary of Health and Human Services, and which is published annually in the Federal Register.2. If the monthly gross income of an obligor is below the lowest level set forth in the low-income schedule, the court may establish an appropriate child support obligation based on the total economic circumstances of the obligor, balancing his or her need for self-support with the obligation to support his or her child.3. The low-income schedule must be published by the Administrative Office of the Courts on or before March 31 of each year.Nev. Admin. Code § 425.145
