Re: Child support
No your income is not directly taken into account for his child support. However, to the extent you contribute to his support it may have an impact on his income for calculating child support, but as a general rule the answer is no.
Moreover, if you marry and have another child that child's needs have to be taken into consideration in any request for modification.
If you do move in with your boyfriend, it may be wise to have an agreement as to who is responsible for what and if you purchase a property prior to getting married have a written agreement.
Good Luck.

The Court has the right to consider any contributions made in its evaluation.
