SSDI and Child support

[taa15]

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? MI

I am disabled and receive SSDI. My daughter also receives benefits from my claim. I have custody. Does her SSDI payments reduce my ex's support obligation? My reading and understanding is that he would only receive a reduction if she received benefits from his benefits.

I think her income would be added to mine and then the support would be calculated based on that number and my ex's. Is this correct?

Yes . They the SSDI benefits are from your disability not his .

Look up your State's child support calculator.
