Change in support based on DissoMaster printout

How to read a DissoMaster printout? In Oct it appears there was a calculation for ss of 3193 but now, with a different lawyer I am offered a new printout with an ss of 1970 (that's with my job loss now). Are these dollar amounts and why such a difference? stbx has same income.

 

cs varies too, low of 548 in Oct. to a high of 1712 now.

 

Seems to me numbers may be changing to lower his payout to me.  Child support will only go on for a few more years while spousal support is indefinite due to our 16 yr. marriage.

 

Spaz help me understand what's going on and if it's to my advantage somehow.

Thank you.  I don't know how the two lawyers used the figures either...

without knowing all of the numbers used by BOTH attorney's and exactly how they used them - telling you why there is such a difference is a bit hard to do when it comes to your spousal support.

Child support went up because CS here is based on both incomes - not just to NCP, and yours was computed by the 2nd attorney as you having no job so he would have to support the children more.
