What Income Is Excluded Under the Oklahoma Child Support Guidelines?

Income is excluded under the Oklahoma child support guidelines. I'm Oklahoma attorney James Wirth. I'm doing a series of videos related to Oklahoma child support.

And specifically, we're talking about what is included in your gross income upon which your child support obligation is going to be determined. And there's earned income, there's passive income, and then there's a list of things that are excluded from being included in your gross income.

So what are those things? Well, they're statutory. You can find them in Title 43, Section, 118b, Subsection B. And that provides income specifically excluded is actual child support received for children, not before the court, adoption assistance subsidy paid by the Department of Human Services, benefits received from means-tested public assistance programs, including but not limited to TANF, SSI, food stamps, and general assistance and state supplemental payments for aged, blind and the disabled.
