[CA] How does the court calculate income for child support guidelines?
On FL-150, page 1 asks for current income (e.g., hourly). Page 2 asks for the average over the past 12 months.
My issue is that last year I had a large one-time stock sale to help buy a house with my ex (we divorced shortly after), so my 12-month average is heavily inflated.
Which does the court rely on more - current income on page 1 or the 12-month average on page 2?
I’m scheduled for my first hearing regarding a temporary child support order soon. Will I have the opportunity to explain my situation to the court?
