Does the standard approach to child support apply during the time that each child was attending college or university?

Ontario, Canada


The following excerpt is from Corby v Corby, 2015 ONSC 2700 (CanLII):

During the time that each child was attending college or university, I find that the calculation of child support pursuant to the “standard approach” in s. 3(2)(a) is not appropriate, and that the child support should be determined pursuant to s. 3(2)(b). During the summer months, however, the “standard approach” to child support, while the child was residing with the respondent, is appropriate, and the applicant should pay the table amount of child support for the four months between academic semesters. This approach was used, for example, in Liscio v. Avram, 2009 CarswellOnt 4882 (S.C.J.) at para. 36.
