Hi there...recently separated...2 school age children who live with each of us 50%...I currently make 75% of the total family income...I pay child and spousal support...she only works part-time (70%) of full time and therefore is capable of earning 30% more than she is ($40k vs $28k). I know there is full time work available to her because we work for the same company and I have access to the postings. That aside, she could work anywhere else on the 1.5 days per week that she is not scheduled to work. Her current hours are consistently the same hours week by week, and have been for over 2 years. She seems to have zero interest in pursuing full time hours. When I have asked her about it, I am told that it is none of my business.
We are coming up on tax time and as per our separation agreement, we are recalculating the support amounts annually, at tax time (spring). I am starting to arm myself with some info on what I can do to resolve what I feel is an unfair situation.
Any suggestions on how to proceed would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
