Most likely a judge would order more support dependant upon his income. You have to go to court to ask for more and/or discuss with him the situation first. If you come to an agreement first, your lawyers can pre-finalize everything and it will be a much simpler process. I would suggest consulting your attorney first of course.
If you're getting along fine without needing more money from him directly, maybe you can ask him to put additional funds directly into a college fund and he may be very agreeable to that. If you're struggling and some extra would help make things better for his children, I don't see why he should object as long as the request is reasonable.

It depends. What state you live in, the circumstances surrounding your divorce, the deal that was cut in the first place, the circumstances under which that deal was made, and the will of the court can all conspire to create a diverse amount of possibilities. There is only one way to find out for sure, and that is to call your attorney and contact the court to see if you can get the support boosted as needed.

Maybe, depending on what your state considers enough for a change of circumstances. But remember, if you ask for a modification of support, it could go lower. When one petitions for a change of circumstances the child support amount could go up or down. If the amount goes down you can't say "oh never mind." Example- He was making $30k now making $40k; you were making $10k and now making $30k; in this scenario you will most likely get less than what you are getting currently.

if he gets makes a large percentage more than what he does now then you should get more child support. But you do have to go back to court unless he decides to pay more willingly.
i know on some court ordered child support the non-custodial parent and custodial parent have to go back to court about every three years, just for like updates or to redetermine child support.
not to sure though...

Yah they use a formula to determine what the support order is. But you do have to go to court for it. Try asking...my daughter's father sends me double every month on his own.
Alright some of you guys are complete idiots! You obviously have no idea just how expensive it is to raise a child. Daycare? Try 140 per WEEK! The cost of a 2 bedroom apartment versus a one bedroom apartment? 250 per month! My child support order is 25.00 a week. I have NEVER tried to gouge her father out of money and though there are some less then honest people out there neither do most custodial parents.

As others have already stated, it relies upon. regularly it relies upon on the size of marriage. Marriages decrease than 10 years regularly do not end with alimony being paid to a companion. some exceptions may be: State rules that motivate alimony in situations of infidelty. super earnings disparity. decrease earnings companion gave up profession to assist bigger earnings spouses persevering with preparation or profession. wellbeing situations. it particularly is particularly a query for an lawyer, not us.

yep since child support guidelines main factor is the parents income, this more income increases the amount of child support
but as stated above you will need to go back into court for a change in circumstances motion

Is not a better job. Is a better pay. You can see through your lawyer and produce evidence of pay increase. The court will revise.

You can take him back to court and try getting the amount adjusted. It happens all of the time.
