depending on the judge. the child support is determined by personal income not household. if your spouse makes over one hundred grand a year a judge might decide it is joint income as payment for housekeeping child rearing and so forth

In California, 20% of the income of the second spouse/SO is used in calculations under these circumstances. Other state legislature have been looking at also doing this to address the declining revenues as a result of requests to modify child support due to layoffs. It's costing the states millions in federal matching funds for fathers to be paying less. Massachusetts addressed the issue by doubling the rates.

A Rebuttable Presumption argument can be made in this regard, but that a two way street, and could result in a reduction, rather than an increase.

That's dependent of the state and related circumstances, such as you being unemployed or have a lower paying job than initially, resulting in a reduction in the support amount. In California they include 20% of the spouse or S/O. But, all child support is rebuttable. see related links.
