Legal Question in Family Law in California

There is a space on the I&E form where you list all the people who live with you, whether they contribute to household expenses, and what their incomes are. Your new spouse's income goes there, not in with your income on page 1. Bear in mind that for child support cases, none of the expense information really matters, since it does not go into the Dissomaster calculation. So unless you are claiming hardships, the expenses don't count. Also, new spouses' income only matters because the Dissomaster estimates taxes and withholding, and that is affected by spousal income. The spouses' incomes are not part of the income used to determine income available for support. As for the other side providing false information, like everything else in court - prove it. You are entitled to conduct discovery to find the underlying facts of the other parent's income.
