Re: child support reduction
Child support is based upon the amount of money you earn and is formular driven. In other words if you take your gross less fica it is 17% for one child, 25% for 2 children etc.
It is almost impossible to get a variance. Hardship is no excuse. On the table where you were at there was a chart. The court figures out the numbers from the chart.
If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact me.
