Legal Question in Family Law in Oregon
Based on the Oregon Child Support rebuttal regarding "�The financial advantage afforded a parent's household by the income of a spouse or another person with whom the parent lives in a relationship similar to husband and wife", I'm curious how this will effect the amount of child support I pay each month to my ex-wife? She is married and works full time, as does her husband, however her husband makes more than double my income and she makes about half of my current income. My question is; does a financial advantage exist in this circumstance and will this lessen the amount I'm currently responsible for each month in child support?

"The financial advantage afforded a parent's household by the income of a spouse or another person with whom the parent lives in a relationship similar to husband and wife" comes into play, for example, when ex-wife stops working fulltime because she no longer needs to do so because of the income of husband # 2. In your case, ex-wife is still working on a fulltime basis.(which she presumably would be doing even if not married to husband # 2). So the rule your are quoting has not application.
