(1) Personal allowance is an amount which reflects 1.3 multiplied by the federal poverty guideline for a one-person household. This amount is deducted when determining child support. Personal allowance is a contribution toward, but is not intended to meet the subsistence needs of parents.
(2) If a parent has legal dependents not capable of self-support and whose needs have not already been considered at ARM 37.62.110, the personal allowance may reflect the parent's responsibility by increasing the number in the household when consulting the federal poverty guideline.
