Depending on the state, up to 20% (California) of your income can be used in the calculations, BUT........
SEC. 103. STATE GUIDELINES FOR CHILD SUPPORT AWARD AMOUNTS.
(A)(a) GUIDELINES TO CREATE REBUTTABLE PRESUMPTION.-Section 467(b)
of the Social Security Act is amended-
(1) by inserting (1) after (b):
(2) by striking, "but need not be binding upon such judges or other officials;" and
(3) by adding at the end the following new paragraph:
(4) "There shall be a REBUTTABLE presumption, in any judicial or administrative proceeding for the award of child support, that the amount of the award which would result from the application of such guidelines is the correct amount of child support to be awarded. A written finding or specific finding on the record that the application of the guidelines would be unjust or inappropriate in a particular case, as determined under criteria established the State, shall be sufficient to rebut the presumption is that case."

husbands income does not count and is irrelevant
No.No.No.No.
Get a subpoena.
Depends on your crime, but yes.
You can't sue her for doing right by hers and your husbands son if he doesn't pay child support. That is your husband's wrongdoing and not hers. I think it would be a total waste of money to sue her for trying to get to your income as well. But you could if you wanted to.
yes it is possible
If your husband is not the child's father, it might depending on the situation.If your husband is the child's father, then yes.
... is possible on a showing that the obligor's income has changed substantially.
That is dependent of state laws and circumstances. In California, if a father files for a reduction in support, due to a layoff, than 20% of the income of the second wife or S/O can be used. See link.
Massachusetts child support is formula based, taking into consideration all financial resources, and not just earned income. This includes the income of a second spouse. Rebuttable considerations include any support obligations for other children, and the amount of time the children spend with each parent. As such, it is not possible to estimate an obligation.
No, but by adding 20% of his income to the figures, her obligation can be increased.
If you both own the real estate- yes. If you are the owner the bank may want your husband to co-sign.
