What are common visitation schedules?

These are some of the most common visitation schedules for joint custody but not the only options available. You and your ex-spouse can design an arrangement that works best for you and your individual lives.

Standard joint custody schedules:

  • Alternating weeks
  • 2-2-3
  • Every weekend
  • Two weeks
  • 3-4-4-3

With joint custody, there will inevitably need to be automatic adjustments made to the visitation schedule from time to time. Life happens, and one parent might find that they need to ask the other to keep the child a little longer than initially planned or take them to their soccer game because they’re no longer able to.
