Thanks for all the input. The 34,600 is his gross receipts before business write-offs, and losses (real or imagined).
>>>>>>> No need to prove he's fudging expenses then , if anything , it's unfair to him , I'm sure there are at least a few legitimate expenses that serve to lower his gross profit .
My insurance costs for myself and the kids is 233.00/mos.
>>>>>>>> Which with my earlier figure gives $798 and change for CS .
I guess I am lucky they apparently used his gross income instead of the net income after all his BS deductions.
>>>>>>> Yup .
You can't change documented numbers on tax returns. (that is my theory anyway).
>>>>>>>> What appears on a tax return has no bearing on what figures will be used to calculate CS , especially when the obligor is self-employed .
I told my lawyer today I will sign divorce papers ASAP if he does not get one red cent of alimony in the settlement....is this possible?
>>>>>>>> Anything is possible , it'll depend on if he'll agree or whether you seek a fault divorce .
Does not one have to show a proven need to get support after the divorce (in PA anyway).
>>>>>>>> There are 17 factors a judge will use to determine if support is appropriate , one is need .
I really hope a judge would see it as taking money from his children as to lessen child support payments, because that is really what it is.
>>>>>>> No , while both parties have an obligation to support their children , there is also an obligation to support your spouse ( when necessary ) . PS , I'm not a big fan either , especially after paying for 3 years .
Do yourself a favor and and make use of the mandatory mediation , a contentious divorce will be far more expensive than a few years spousal support .
