Hearing depends on a series of events that change sound waves in the air into electrical signals. Your auditory nerve then carries these signals to your brain through a complex series of steps. Sound waves enter the outer ear and travel through a narrow passageway called the ear canal, which leads to the eardrum.
However, if your child is 21 or older and you pay him $1,700 or more during the year, you can withhold Social Security and Medicare taxes from his pay. If you choose not to withhold the taxes, you must pay your adult childâs Medicare and Social Security taxes yourself.
For example, suppose two parents have equal incomes of $15,000 per year, for a joint annual income of $30,000. If they have one child, the annual support is $5,377. The parent paying child support would pay half (50%) of the annual support, because that parent earned half of the total income. Half of $5,377 is $2,688.50 per year. The child support owed is then deducted in incremental amounts each payday from the paying parent's paycheck. In this example, if the parent who owes support is paid once each month, one-twelfth of $2,688.50 would be withheld from his or her paycheck, for a total monthly deduction of $224.05.
