Will the fact that my employer offers perks like meals, per diem, and gym memberships impact the amount of child support I pay?
/Yes. Under Marriage of Schulze, employer perks are income available for support to the extent that they reduce a person’s living expenses. For example, in California the use of a company car and company condo at below market rate was taken into consideration when awarding support. However, there are some limitations on this rule as it does not encompass rent free housing outside of the employment benefits context.
