I am the new spouse.
Included in the divorce settlement for my new husband and his ex, is a clause for automatic reevaluation of child support, which is due to happen in a month.
Current Situation:
For the last 4 years - the payments have benefited the ex - since at the time it was calculated - her income was 10x less. (5K per year vs 50K - w/ a 51% - 49% custody arrangement)
Now, her income is about 36K, his about 15K. He works part time (25 hours a week) so that he can accomodate his sons school schedule, and his ex's graveyard shift schedule.
If my income were NOT included, her income would be double his, and he would likely be awarded a payment.
My Question:
Do they consider my income as the new spouse in California? Esp. since he is not working full time?
