Is a payor spouse’s income based on her line 150 income?

British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Bassett v. Magee, 2013 BCSC 18 (CanLII):

Further, for reasons set out in Gibbons v. Gibbons, 2012 BCSC 1967 I am of the view that for consistency and uniformity, the provisions of ss 15 and 16 of the Federal Child Support Guidelines apply to the determination of a payor spouse’s income: that is, that child support and contribution to extraordinary expenses should be based on a payor’s line 150 income.
