FAQ
Spousal support may be ordered even when spouses reside together. In New York State a married person may be legally responsible to provide for the support of his or her spouse during their marriage, if that spouse lacks sufficient income or assets to provide for his or her own reasonable needs.
Child support is never deductible and isn't considered income. Additionally, if a divorce or separation instrument provides for alimony and child support, and the payer spouse pays less than the total required, the payments apply to child support first. Only the remaining amount is considered alimony.
For one child, you take 17% of the parents' combined income, for two children you take 25%, for three children you take 29%, for four children you take 31% and for five children you take no less than 35% of the parents' combined income and this percentage amount represents the basic child support obligation.
In a New York state divorce, child support generally continues under CSSA until you turns 21 if you are not self-supporting. The rule of thumb there is: military, married, or working full time. If you are in college, for example, child support should contribute to what your mother pays toward your educational expenses.
A: Alimony can be suspended or terminated in the event that the recipient is cohabitating with someone in a relationship akin to marriage. These are complex cases that require a careful approach. Your brother should have a consultation with a qualified matrimonial attorney immediately.
40% of the high earner's net monthly income minus 50% of the low earner's net monthly income. For instance, if Spouse A earns $5,000 per month and Spouse B earns $2,500 per month, temporary spousal support might be calculated as follows: 40% of $5,000 = $2,000. 50% of $2,500 = $1,250.
Typically, the judge will take 20% of the lower-earning spouse's income and subtract that number from 30% of the higher-earning spouse's income. For example, one spouse makes $100,000, and the other makes $20,000. Thirty percent of $100,000 is $30,000, and 20% of $20,000 is $4,000.
