no you dont, its not taxable and its not deductable (for who ever is doing the paying).
the child(ren) are deductable. i've put some links for the IRS tax issue regarding child support questions and info.
here are some links to help. one is a child support calculator; just click on your state and fill it in. also some federal regional CS office info in case your caseworker isnt on the ball. they can sometimes add heat to your case if you write to them. the divorce links can help with questions with custody, visitation, child support (just click on your state and find the section you need). the last few are to help you.

A W2 is a form the employer provides the employee A W4 is what determines your withholdings. You can specify whatever you want on your W4. If you claimed too many deductions, you will owe money when you file your taxes. Child who don't live with you 6months out of the year cannot be claimed on your taxes, so these overseas children would not qualify.

No. Child support is not taxable to the recipient nor deductible for the payer, and is not reported on a tax form by either person.

No you don't. Child support isn't taxable to the parent who receives it and isn't a deduction for the parent who pays it.
