If her income drops, yes, she is entitled to reassess the amount and what you owe might go up. If your bonus hasn't been calculated into the support, that could cause it to go up too. It's all up to the computer program. It doesn't matter she makes more if she has more time too - the custodial time and the actual incomes are crunched through the program and the numbers come out. As long as the numbers are valid, that's what whomever the program says must pay pays.
