The amount of child support paid is based on the net income of the paying parent. For example, if there is one child, the parent would owe approximately 20% of his or her net income to the residential parent. However, what happens if that parent's income increases or decreases? In that case, you would have to file a Motion to Modify Support, and you would ask the court to increase or decrease the child support in order to reflect the new income level. Please be aware that you cannot enter court and ask for a modification every time the individual's income changes. There must be a "significant" change in income or circumstances in order to get the amount of child support modified.
