The Explanation:

> "Number of years lived together" includes the period of the marriage to separation plus any period that the parties cohabited before marriage.

> For the purposes calculating support for common-law couples under the Family Relations Act, the minimum period of cohabitation in two years.

> The payor's income has a ceiling of $350,000 and a floor of $20,000.

Note: The maximum amount of support payable is the amount that would equalize the parties' net incomes, not their gross income. This calculator does not perform this calculation.
