My wife and I live in Louisiana. Her son (8 yrs old) recently had to move to North Carolina with his father for educational purposes. My wife's ex-husband had been paying child support according to the judgement set forth in Louisiana (where the marriage and subsequent divorce was filed). Now that her son is not living with us, will my (step-parent) income become a factor in determining child support? Also, my wife & I have two children under the age of 5. My wife is a full time mom. Would she be forced to get a job and send our two children to daycare in order to pay child support for her son in North Carolina...??? Any info would greatly be appreciated!
