1nonmedical facility such as a group home, foster home, treatment foster home,

8following factors, the court finds by the greater weight of the credible evidence that
9the use of the percentage standard is unfair to the child or to either of the parents:
SB40-SSA1,690,1010 1. The needs of the child.
SB40-SSA1,690,1211 2. The physical, mental, and emotional health needs of the child, including any
12costs for the child's health insurance provided by a parent.
SB40-SSA1,690,1513 3. The standard of living and circumstances of the parents, including the needs

19parent's community.

SB40-SSA1,690,2121 7. The age of the child.
SB40-SSA1,690,2222 8. The financial resources and the earning ability of the child.

2the child of expenditures by the family for improvement of any conditions in the home
3that would facilitate the reunification of the child with the child's family, if
4appropriate, and the importance of a placement that is the least restrictive of the
5rights of the child and the parents and the most appropriate for meeting the needs
6of the child and the family.
SB40-SSA1,691,77 11. Any other factors that the court in each case determines are relevant.
SB40-SSA1,691,158 (cm) 1. Except as provided in subd. 2., if a parent who is required to pay child

11determined under par. (b) or (c) may not exceed the amount of the adoption assistance

18the amount of the child support payments to the amount of the adoption assistance

20parents.
SB40-SSA1,692,221 (d) If the court finds under par. (c) that use of the percentage standard is unfair
22to the minor child or either of the parents, the court shall state in writing or on the
23record the amount of support that would be required by using the percentage
24standard, the amount by which the court's order deviates from that amount, its
25reasons for finding that use of the percentage standard is unfair to the child or the

1parent, its reasons for the amount of the modification, and the basis for the
2modification.
SB40-SSA1,692,103 (e) 1. An order issued under s. 48.355 (2) (b) 4., 48.357 (5m) (a), or 48.363 (2)
4for support determined under this subsection constitutes an assignment of all

14be deducted from the money to be paid to the payer.
SB40-SSA1,692,1915 3. Benefits under ch. 108 may be assigned and withheld only in the manner
16provided in s. 108.13 (4). Any order to withhold benefits under ch. 108 shall be for
17an amount certain. When money is to be withheld from these benefits, no fee may
18be deducted from the amount withheld and no fine may be levied for failure to
19withhold the money.
SB40-SSA1,693,320 4. No employer may use an assignment under this paragraph as a basis for the
21denial of employment to a person, the discharge of an employee, or any disciplinary
22action against an employee. An employer who denies employment or discharges or
23disciplines an employee in violation of this subdivision may be fined not more than
24$500 and may be required to make full restitution to the aggrieved person, including
25reinstatement and back pay. Except as provided in this subdivision, restitution shall

1be in accordance with s. 973.20. An aggrieved person may apply to the district
2attorney or to the department of workforce development for enforcement of this

9otherwise dispose of any funds that are collected in excess of the cost of such care and
10maintenance in a manner that the assignee determines will serve the best interests
11of the minor child.
SB40-SSA1,693,20 12(16) The department shall delegate to county departments under ss. 46.22 and
