divorce child
In California, question on separation, divorce, child support & alimoney?

I am a stay-at-home mom and am divorcing my alcoholic husband. At present, the alimony & child support I will receive won't be enough to continue caring for my son full-time. I'll have to put him in daycare 9 hours a day to make ends meet (I DON'T want to do that!).
Here is the question...My husband is being considered for a new job where he will make $50,000 more per year! If I wait to file for divorce until he starts this new job, will I receive more in child support and alimony? I wonder mainly because we've been separated for 4 months and I don't know if the courts will look at his income at the time of separation or at the time the divorce is filed.
I know some nasty person is going to call me money grubbing, but this is ALL about avoiding putting my young son in daycare all day long when he's used to being at home with me. I'll be working full-time as soon as he's in regular school.
Thanks!

Been there, done that. His current income status will be looked at when the divorce is filed.

It's Complicated

$4.97

It's delightful to see Meryl Streep come into her own as a romantic comedian in her later career years--after all the accolades, the Oscars, the serious-as-marble dramatic roles. Streep is in fact a true cutup, as she has demonstrated in films like Mamma Mia and Julie & Julia--and she gets the guy. So if Nancy Meyers's It's Complicated is perhaps a bit facile in the plot department, it's saved by ...
