Thank you!

hello\

step parents are not counted in pa.

they are not permitted to use your income unless they can establish that your dh is underemployed deliberately and that you are supporting him

'dont turn in any info unless a judge orders it.

give them his pay stubs  last 6 months  and his year end W2.

when filling out the household expense form you might wish to seperate the bills or calculate half for you and half for him

generally pa only looks at net income

if you have kids too dont admit to claiming them on a joint return

either avoid the subject or say your ex claims them perhaps ( my ex claims all the kids because he provides more than 50% of their support.)

if you ever have any questions about pa support you can email me in person  i have been doing volunteer work in pa concerning this BS for years now and i am very familiar with the system.
