Re: child support
yes child support is taken out from disability income. It is still income.
The amount can be modified though to take into account your lowered income.
As always please consult with a local attorney in your area before making legal decisions.
Good luck!

Re: child support
Yes. If the amount taken from your disability is less than the court ordered support then the shortfall will accrue as an arrearage. You should take action to have child support reduced based on your ability to pay.
