This is becoming a questionable issue. In California, you are required to include the income of the Spouse or S/O, for both parents, in the child support modification questionnaire. see link below
There's been reports of other states considering this with the growing rates of fathers filing for reductions as a result of layoffs. See related question on ways to deal with this possibility.

Does a non custodial parent have to pay if the custodial parent gets married NM?
The CP's marriage should not affect the NCP's child support obligation.
In Texas if the custodial parent remarries does that affect child support?
In general, no. (I suppose the answer might be different if she married Donald Trump.)
In Florida is a spouse's income included in child support?
No Almost never. In a couple of states, there are some minor loopholes that revolve around cases where there is an open arreage or a recent reduction of support because of a new lower paying job, but in the US at least, a second spouses income does not generally affect your support amount.
Does shared physical custody with grandparents affect child support paid to custodial parent?
no
What affect might it have if you cancel child support and you are receiving benefits?
If the custodial parent is on any public assistance he or she must attempt to collect financial support from the non custodial parent or they will be disqualified for public aid.
If the non-custodial parent owns their own business how will that affect child support to custodial parent?
In theory it should have no affect at all - self-employed persons are not exempt from paying child support. In fact, if that person is not cooperative it can be hard to verify her/his income and also hard to collect support once an order is entered.

No. The non custodial parent's income and assets in conjunction with state laws pertaining to the issue determine the amount of child support that should be paid. The income of the custodial parent is only considered in very rare circumstances.
Does adoption of child by non-biological parent affect the non-custodial parent as far as visitation and child support?
Yes, both are suspended.
If you were an unmarried single parent and later got married. Does this affect the child support order with the non custodial parent?
It will probably depend on the court order or agreement that sets up the rules for child support in your case. If there is not a court order, then there really is not any enforcement of non-payment available to you. Most states have a formula per child that the non-custodial parent pays toward child support. In Texas, it was 25% of the non-custodial parent's income per child--not really with any consideration of which person made the most money. (disclaimer: this is information based on experience, not a law degree!)
The custodial parent is receiving social security for himself and for the two girls and now are receiving child support how does the child support affect the social security he is receiving?
As he's on SSD, none at all.
Can a custodial parent get more child support when their teenage children choose not to visit their non-custodial parent?
No, visitation and child support are 2 separate entities. The only way this would affect your support amount is if you are set up with 50-50 custody and the child stops going to the other parents house and you take them to court to get primary custody.
Do you still receive child support if he is visiting his father?
Depends on how long the visit is. But if the father is the non-custodial parent in this case, then he will have to pay child support on this child. Different states vary in their laws. But typically a "visit" will not affect child support.
