Whose income is considered when determining child support? - Shelly - 11-09-2012 06:31 PM Is it only the parents income, or is it any income coming into the household, such as spouses income? And if the parent recieving the child support has a higher income than the parent paying, is that considered as well? - Adam - 11-09-2012 06:40 PM just the parents of the child. - kindtoe804 - 11-09-2012 06:40 PM Only the bio-parent who is NOT the custodial parent. Non related adults do NOT count. The Custodial parent's income has no bearing on how much CS the non-custodial parent will pay Each state has a mandated minimum percentage of income the non custodial parent must pay. - Truthiness - 11-09-2012 06:40 PM Every state is slightly different so you need to look up the tables for your state. Today both parent's incomes are counted, the tables are long (and two-dimensional). The ostensible purpose of child-support is to normalize the quality of life the child experiences at both locations so the custodial parent can end up paying the non-custodial parent - this generally only happens when the man wins custody. If you make more money than your ex-husband it will reduce the amount he pays. - greatsoda694 - 11-09-2012 06:40 PM That depends on the state. In Massachusetts, anything except change back on a dollar is considered for not only increasing child support, but also alimony. http://squidoo.com/ChildSupport2ndSpouseIncome http://ChildSupportRights.org/WhatPayersNeed2Know ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬â–​¬â–¬â–¬â–¬â–¬â–¬â–¬â–¬â–¬â–¬â–¬â–¬â–¬â–¬ Federal Child Support Enforcement Handbook for Non-Custodial Parents http://childsupportrights.org/ ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬â–​¬â–¬â–¬â–¬â–¬â–¬â–¬â–¬â–¬â–¬â–¬â–¬â–¬â–¬ To learn a father's rights, join Dads House Educational Groups.
