No, a spouse's salary is not included in a child support calculation. Only the salaries of the parents are relevant.

That's the good news.

The bad news is you'll be paying 17-23% of your AGI without a tax deduction.

Of course that applies if you are working. If not your wife may be paying indirectly.
