Carwath (retired) Child Support Adjustments ASK THE PROFESSIONAL Do | have to tell my spouse my income changes every year and adjust child support? = If your income increases from when child support was established, the answer to this question is clearly, yes. The Supreme Court of Canada last year established that if you do not pay child support under the Guidelines the parent that is receiving child support can demand it with no time limitation. Annually it is up to the payor of child support to adjust the payment and get the adjustment in writing. If you as a payor do not take these actions you expose yourself to a large make-up payment which can even come after the children are no longer being supported.
