[quote=Anonymous]Your answer, as always, lies in the statute. Section 12-202(a)(2)(iii)(2) provides for support of other children as a deviation factor; however, Section 12-202(a)(2)(iv) is clear that the presumptive amount awarded under the guidelines cannot be rebutted solely based upon the existence of other children. One thing that is interesting is that child support paid is deducted from gross income which is what a lot of states do so it is actually more favorable from a guidelines prospective to pay child support than have another child living with you. The other thing to keep in mind is if that other child is on your health insurance and you provide health insurance for the children on the support order you will get a reduction in the credit due to the other child being on the health insurance.[/quote]
