I am a ncp, I allowed my ex to move out of state with our son. She is now requesting an increase in child support. I have no problem with that, since it has been three years since our divorce and I am not making more money. I want to know if the court will factor in that she now lives in a state with a lower cost of living and that now for two months he lives with me. Also, I am not certain she is gainfully employed and can be, will I be penalized b/c she does not want to work and can? I know they look at W-2's, which will likely indicate she does not make the same money she did in NJ, but will also reflect she is not working. I want to do right by my son, but I do not want to be responsible for her share of his support. Will the court take into consideration that her cost of living is less? In addition, she had a significant amount of debt prior to our marriage and now since her move, am I responsible for that. Does the court look at her financial issues?
