HI,
Basically my question is..Does my income go towards my husbands child support to his ex? Long story..I just got remarried in January, its a 2nd marriage for both of us. I have 2 daughters ages 18 and 20, my CS is done. He has 2 sons from his 1st marriage, they are 19 and 15. He is still paying CS on the 15 yr. old. His ex wife is the custodial parent but my SS spends most of his time at our house. I started a new job last week and 3 days after I started my job my husband lost his job of 15 yrs. We are going to have the CS re-evaluated. My husband will get unemployment but hasnt started collecting it yet. We also lost our health insurance. I cant get insurance at my new job until Ive been there for 60 days, cobra is 1000 a month, so Im going to apply for medicaid for all 6 of us. His ex seems to think that my income will pay her CS. She calls it "family income". Im 99.9% sure my income has nothing to do with her CS. She wont put her kids on her insurance and seems to feel she is entitled to whatever money she can get from us. She makes more money then I do and now my husband makes nothing except for a forthcoming unemployment check. Im just hoping to get some opinions here, We will barely be making it with just my income. Im really hoping my income wont go to her. We are more then happy to take custody of SS but she will never allow that...Did I mention our 3 older kids are all in college and she doesnt contribute much to her older sons education. Thanks.
