Q: I am trying to estimate what child support payment will be. I know my child support will be based on my gross salary. I was under the assumption that FICA is a deduction excluded from gross salary when calculating child support. Is FICA medicare and social security excluded from child support or just medicare.
A: David's Answer: Yes, FICA, Medicare and social security taxes are statutory deductions from gross income before applying the child support percentages (17% for 1 child, 25% for 2 children, etc.). Speak further with a Child Support lawyer in your area. -- David Bliven, Westchester Child Support attorney (www.blivenlaw.net)
