Rule 4-221 Rounding to the nearest whole dollar.

When calculating child support payments, the final amount always gets rounded to the nearest whole dollar. This means you won't see cents in a child support order, just whole dollar amounts.

For example, if a calculation comes out to $450.49, it rounds down to $450. If it comes out to $450.50 or higher, it rounds up to $451. This keeps things simple for both parents and makes payments easier to track.
