Does An Inheritance Count As Income For Determining Child Support?

Aug 14, 2011

financial advice on divorceQuestion:

I pay child support to my ex-wife, who is about to receive a large inheritance. I know the child support I pay depends on the income I earn and the amount of parenting time I have.

Does it also depend on what she makes, either through her job or any money she gets through the inheritance?

Ask a Lawyer: How to adjust child support monies?

Sep 06, 2009

Question:

My (ex) wife just filed for divorce that is non contested. She got a lawyer, but I did not. Her expenses are listed in the papers for calculation of child support. I have no problem paying child support, but the amount is too high. My expenses were NOT calculated in order to come up with this specific dollar amount. How do I go about getting my expenses calcualted in order to adjust the dollar amount? Do I need a lawyer? Or can I go about this w/o a lawyer? Please help.

Answer:

Allow me to preface my answer to your question with the disclaimer that I am not licensed to practice law in the state of Kansas. Some jurisdictions consider your income and her income in determining child support, while others only consider your income. You can file paperwork with the court regarding your income and expenses. it is always advisable to get counsel if you are not happy with what has been offered to you.
