Child maintenance - is he working this out wrong?

My ex is telling me that he only needs to enter into the online calculator how much he earns AFTER he deducts his non taxable income. So for example say he earns £32570 he’s saying he only needs to base it off £20000…is this right?! I’ve just been putting his salary in without any deductions. He’s very reluctant to go through the proper channels and I’m wondering whether he’s reluctant because he’s lying about his income

It’s always deducted before tax, he can ask for a reconsideration if he is financially struggling but he is working it out wrong

SAHM trying to find work

So I’ve been a sahm since I got pregnant, my sons is 14 months now and my sons father and I have separated and since we can’t get along he’s not going to help much and I need to find work soon. We have no family in Vegas so I’m in desperate need of advice and work from home. I’m terrified about starting over and I could use some words of encouragement. I have no idea how I’m going to do this.

What should I do ?

Me and my other half been together for about 2 years we have a baby boy he acts like he cares about me and I just recently found out that I’m pregnant again and ever since we found out he been distant never wanting to kiss me then he ask if I’m going to keep the baby I really want to keep it but I’m afraid to say yes but then I’m also afraid he would tell me to leave but I have absolutely no other place to stay but with him he also threats me about leaving me and saying I can’t take my son with me if I decide to leave so I stay he also wants an open relationship and I honestly don’t really like that idea so I honestly don’t know what to do

I feel like if I had more money I would eat more healthier. I eat pretty healthy but just like getting a bunch of healthy snacks I can't afford it the whole month. I can afford it for a couple weeks but then it gets hard..

I work for the school district so we get paid once a month. I did get a pay upgrade but it's still hard when you get paid once a month. Has anyone else had the same struggles ?
