What Is Income For Child Support Purposes?
The majority of the figures that are entered into the child support guidelines are indisputable. The one figure where there is often disagreement regards income.
For many people, all of their income may be clearly documented in their annual W-2 tax form. But, for a great many people, it may be difficult to quantify exactly what their income was during a particular year. Income from sources such as the following can create ambiguity:
- Self-employment
- Bonuses
- Stock options
Some other figures that will impact a child support award include:
- Health insurance premiums to cover children
- Educational or daycare costs
- The number of prior children from other relationships
