Child support income

[neoexploited]

I am disabled Military and receive monthly benefits for this. When I divorced I rec'd those benefits along with income for a job. I am no longer employed, I am currently enrolled in school thru the post 911 GI bill, it allots for living expenses.

My question is:

In calculating my child support would the money from my GI bill for living expenses be calculated as income? Or would my disability benefits only be used?

My income has dropped by half (without the income from a job) since my child support order went in to place and I am trying to figure out if it would be worth it to seek a reduction. If only my disability is counted then it would.

Thank you in advance!

Money received to cover living expenses would be considered income for child support calculations.
