This schedule qualifies as joint physical custody under Utah law (both parents have at least 111 overnights per year). The joint custody child support worksheet applies, which factors in both parents' incomes and overnight percentages.

Frequently asked questions

What parenting-time schedules does Utah use?

Utah law sets minimum parent-time schedules (for example, the alternating-weekend schedule and expanded options for children of different ages). Parents can agree to more time; the statutory schedule is the floor a court will apply if you don't.

Can we create our own custody schedule?

Yes. If both parents agree, you can build a schedule that fits your family and put it in your parenting plan. A court will generally approve it as long as it meets Utah's minimums and serves the child's best interest.

How does the schedule affect child support?

The schedule determines each parent's overnights, and overnights determine which child support worksheet applies. Building your schedule first makes the support numbers more accurate.
