If I quit my job or take a lower-paying one, can I reduce my
child support payment?
No. Voluntarily quitting a job, setting yourself up to get
fired, or choosing a lower-paying job does not entitle you to reduce child
support, and courts are not likely to tolerate this behavior.
If a court finds that you’ve tried to skirt your child
support obligations, it may calculate your child support obligation based on
what you earn and "imputed" income, which is money you could be
earning based on employment history.
