Manitoba (MB) family law software
Family law calculations built for Manitoba firms
Manitoba's Family Property Act provides for equal sharing of family assets and a court-discretionary division of commercial assets, with a deferred sharing regime activated by separation or death.
What Divo calculates for Manitoba files
Child support
Federal Child Support Guidelines (SOR/97-175) table amounts, section 7 special expenses, shared parenting set-off, and imputed income under s. 19
Spousal support
SSAG without-child and with-child formulas, duration ranges (rule of 65, indefinite), and lump-sum equivalents
Property division
Manitoba is one of the only provinces that distinguishes 'family' from 'commercial' assets — family assets divide equally as of right, commercial assets divide equally subject to a court's discretion under FPA s. 14.
Tax & benefit impacts
Spousal support deductibility, Canada Child Benefit interactions, GST/HST credit, and provincial benefits modeled into net cash positions
