There are maximum percentages for child support arrears that can be taken out of his pay, as well as, whether or not there are other obligations being taken out of his pay, to determine what percentage will be taken out. Not sure what you mean about sharing that 60%.

You would do well to consult with an attorney and hire one. Proving voluntary impoverishment, is difficult to do, especially with an new born child (even if the new child is not the custodial parents child). A longer discussion with an attorney than one via an open forum is needed.

I need clarification from what you asked in order to respond. Is child not born yet? Who is seeking child support? Are the parents separated? etc.

Are you getting paid during your leave? If not, you should file a modification of child support ASAP and request that child support either be reduced or terminated during the period that you are not working.
I want to put my husbands children on my health insurance plan because it is cheaper for us. However, I do not want division on child support to include my income in his case. Will my putting them on my insurance jeopardize that?

No your income will not be included. However, neither your husband or the children's biological mother will be able to obtain "credit" when determining the child support obligation.

No the court would not include her income. However, they would also not provide you with the "credit" for paying for the children's health care when determining what, if any, child support obligation there will be.
