In a general sense, if used properly (in the software), your spouses income will either have no effect or will lower your child support (by placing you into a higher tax bracket which lowers your net spendable available to pay support from).
For a specific opinion regarding your individual circumstances, I suggest that you consult with an experienced family law lawyer. Experience is not expensive, it's priceless!
