The response posted above is based upon the limited factual information made available and is not intended as a full and complete response to the question. The only reliable manner to obtain complete and adequate legal advice is to consult with an attorney, fully explain your situation, and allow the attorney sufficient opportunity to research the applicable law and facts required to render an accurate opinion. The basic information provided above is intended as a public service but a full discussion with an attorney should be undertaken before taking any action.
You can always request additional information through Requests for Production of Documents which is a discovery tool allowed in litigation.
You will need to ask for credit card/sales receipts to prove that they are not lowering their numbers artificially. Thank you.

We are applying for a motion to reduce child support. The ex spousals income is based on sales activity. Proof of a quarter may not reflect actual income. Can I request a W2 or is each spouse required to bring whatever proof they can muster to show income? How can you ensure they are showing accurate information and not low-balling?
