In Georgia Is there a way to get child support lowered if you get a lower income job and have another child?

It costs less to support the first child because you had a second child? The fact that you had another child is not likely to change the court's mind. Having a lower income job, on the other hand, could have an effect. You might contact the Friend of the Court or your attorney for the best ways to approach this.

Alimony v Child Support-What are benefits and negatives of one over the other?

Actually, limited time alimony is better to pay than child support. Child support separate from alimony only became common some 40 years ago. Alimony is tax deductible, while child support is not. When calculating child support, alimony is a deductible item from gross earned income on which the calculations are based, thus less child support is ordered. In addition, the alimony adds to the total taxable the other parent, resulting in them taking on a greater obligation in the support of the children. Balancing the benefits of one over the other is something to discuss with a tax accountant. Reducing taxable income, as a result of paying alimony, could bring the obligor into a lower tax bracket. Combining this with the lower child support obligation could actually create an overall savings as compared to just paying child support.
