I have remarried, will my present wifes income be considered by the Family Courts? We have been filing a joint return, should we be filing seperate returns?

Re: Child Support
Under the CSSA, the new spousal income
is not to be used in the formula
It could come into play if a "needs
analysis" is done, because it becomes
"available" to offset household expenses
But a needs analysis is done only where
there is a lack of cooperation and/or
special needs for the child
You may want an attorney to review it all
Call 1-716-235-2560 for further arrangements
if desired
Re: Child Support
Filing separate returns in not necessary.
If your ex wife sues based on your current wife's income, retain and attorney and fight the case.
