What if I don’t have any income?
Even if you aren’t working, you may still have income. The
state of New York includes workers’ compensation awards, pensions, fellowships,
stipends, and annuity payments as income for child support purposes. If you
receive disability, unemployment, social security, veterans, or retirement
benefits, then a court will use those benefit amounts to calculate your
payments. Public assistance, on the other hand, is not income. Any amount of
public assistance you receive from the state is deducted from the combined
parental income.
