Introduced·1/29/25
Introduced Text

HB1889 amends child support guidelines in Illinois to exclude gifts from gross income.

HB1889 amends the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act to modify child support calculations by excluding gifts from a parent's gross income. Gifts are defined as voluntary transfers of property, including money, free of repayment or obligation. This change aims to ensure that child support obligations are based on actual income available for the child's support, excluding non-reimbursable gifts. The bill also outlines procedures for calculating child support, including adjustments for health insurance, child care expenses, and shared physical care arrangements.
