Whose income is considered when determining child support?
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?

In New York State, both incomes are considered and a ratio of the mother and father's income is created. So if the income of the father is $40,000 and the mother is $60,000 and the mother is the custodial parent, the the father pays 40% of the children's expenses on top of what the basic support is. I'm not sure exactly what you're asking, but I believe any income can be counted. The parent receiving child support cannot claim it as income for tax purposes.

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.

For 22 years, I have volunteered my time working with divorced/single fathers dealing in family law issues, such as child support, teaching them about what the states are not telling support obligors.
