No, your income can't be included.

I have been through an on going nightmare with my husbands X! The first time we went to court we had a lawyer. When the judge came out he said I had to leave the court room because this didn't involve me but yet the Judge asked the our lawyer to go out and ask me how much I made!!! I said if this has nothing to do with me than he doesn't need to know!!! I refused. If you are not married they will let you be, but be careful if marriage is down the road for you!! The courts DO NOT need to know anything about you! If they are not your kids, that is.

In some cases if the father is behind in support, the new wife's salary could be calculated in the mix. Don't be fooled that it couldn't happen!

Here in NY a spouse's income can not be used in support issues....

I am so with you on that one. I recently inherited a large sum of money from a relative and husband's ex tried to go for an increase in child support. The judge turned her down because she saw right through her, plus the amount based on his income would have been the same anyway. Now, since she moved to another county, she is trying again with a different judge. I keep thinking to myself, only two more years to go and we will not have to deal with her.

does anyone know if florida considers a new spouses income in child support case.

When calculating on-going CS, no the spouse's income is NEVER used. However, in situations where the NCP is voluntarily unemployed, or underemployed, the spouse's income can be CONSIDERED in imputing income to the NCP.

Also, if arrears are owed, the court can CONSIDER the spouse's income.
