Question:
My Spouse Received a Bonus, How Does That Calculate with Child Support?
Answer:
- Some courts will assess Child Support based on the base income alone, and will add a prevision each time a bonus is made
- Other courts will simply assess child support based upon the entire income from the prior year, or an average of the last 2 or 3 years
- The party that receives the bonus is paying support on all income, including anticipated bonuses, which may not be fair
