The Court can impute income to you based on your earning capacity, which is based off your work history and/or education. This typically happens in cases where the Court finds that someone is voluntarily underemployed or unemployed.
These are complex issues, and it is important that they be handled correctly. Therefore, it is important that you consult an experienced family law attorney to find out what options are available to you based on the facts of your particular case.
If you need more information, you can visit my family law blog (www.SCFamilyLaw.com) or our website (www.SpartanburgLawyers.com). I wish you the best of luck.
