When a parent voluntarily chooses to work overtime, does that parent have to exclude the overtime pay from that parent's gross income?
California, United States of America
The following excerpt is from In re: Marriage of Scheppers, 103 Cal.Rptr.2d 529 (Cal. App. 2001):
He is mistaken. When a parent voluntarily chooses to work overtime, there is no reason to exclude the overtime pay from the parent's income. (County of Placer v. Andrade (1997) 55 Cal.App.4th 1393, 1397.) By the same token, when a parent voluntarily chooses to work two jobs, there is no reason to exclude the wages from the second job from that parent's gross income.
