Cost-of-Living Adjustments
This is the online version of "A Guide to Child Support
& Spousal Maintenance Cost-of-Living Adjustments," which is published
by the Office on the Economic Status of Women. This guide should be used only for court orders
that were issued in the state of Minnesota. If your divorce or
child support order is from another state, you cannot use this guide.
Read the Overview
for general information about cost-of-living adjustments. More detailed
information is available through Frequently
Asked Questions, Minnesota's
Law, and Other
Sources of Information.
Calculating
the Adjustment provides step-by-step instructions as well as the necessary
forms for determining your adjustment.
If you are looking for only the Consumer Price Index (CPI),
you can go directly to the CPI
Table.
