Stepparents are not responsible for their stepchildren. Spouses are not responsible for their spouse's child(ren). However, to collect unpaid support, the State may place liens on real and personal property, including bank accounts, owned by the obligor, even though the spouse is a joint owner.
Not in accordance with the state guidelines, but a rebuttable presumption argument can be present in favor of it in every state. see link
Not by law, however the state sets law based on court rulings so this may change. see links below
In general, (re)marriage should not increase or decrease one's child support obligation, regardless of the new spouse's income or the presence of stepchildren.
probably not

The new spouse is not responsible for his/her spouse's children.
No. A new spouse is not obligated to pay for a child they did not help conceive.
Spouses are not responsible for their spouse's child(ren). However, to collect unpaid support, the State may place liens on real and personal property, including bank accounts, owned by the obligor, even though the spouse is a joint owner.
Yes, as all states do.
No, a spouses income is never taken into consideration when child support is being figured. Only the income of the 2 biological parents will be used.
The alimony you get can increase based on the income of both spouses. If the person paying the alimony starts to make more money, they can be required to pay more based on a percentage.
nope, only takes the mother and fathers income into account. Spouses of the parents are not included
In general, child support is a percentage of net income, so it's unlikely that the State will increase your support when you lose your job.
No, New York does not take a new spouse's income into account when calculating child support. However, if you owe back child support, the state is able to garnish joint assets, such as a joint checking account or a joint tax refund.
