BF is paying above guidelines right now by about $120 a month. CS can be reviewed every 3 years or 15% income change. BF is expecting a raise next year that will amount to over $800 more a month than when CS was set, significantly higher than the 15% income change. If BM has it recalculated & it's found that the amount that he's currently paying is within guidelines with the new income, will the court deviate from that & order him to pay more since he'll be making so much more & he was able to pay above guidelines when making less?
Just a hypothetical question so please don't turn it into more. ;)

It is what it is. If is calcs to the same, they will probably just have him keep paying the same amount. I can't imagine the justification for anything else.

I'd have to agree with the other two.
I doubt the court would calculate support against the new income, and THEN tack on $120 to put CS back above guidelines.
