When a husband and wife divorce and husband moves on and moves into new relationship whether just common-law or marriage, does his child support and spousal support change to go on the new amount of husband and new relationship partner. I am hesitant to move to the next step of common-law with my boyfriend, because his exwife is a tyrant...my boyfriend was ordered to pay $4200 a month to her for spousal and child support last year, he is not paying that full amount unfortunately he goes into arrears every month, I think they are garnishing $1800 bi weekly because he doesnt make enough to survive if he paid her the full amount... but now she is alooting to the fact that if he ever moves in with me, she can add both of our wages together and get more support. She has tried in court to prove that he is living at my house, owns half of everything..., as well as redirected his mail from government, school, lawyers, doctors, etc to my address. He mainly lives at his parents, but does stay at my house a few times a week. Are boyfriends not allowed to do that? I really dont think that is possible for her scenario...but we did check the court records and in one town up north, the judge awarded ex wife an increased amount of child support because the husband was benefiting from new spouse's income, and that was money the ex wife and kids should be entitled to...sounds too wierd. I really do love my boyfriend, but not enough to help support his Physco Ex Wife.
Any comments?
