Answer: 

You didn't say whether you are divorced already or not. If you are divorced - the court will specify exactly how much financial support you are required to submit. If you are not divorced, but living apart and making payments voluntarily, any payment agreements you make with your wife are up to the two of you. It sounds like you probably need to consult with a divorce attorney to see exactly what your options are. - The Divorce.com Team
