Can my income count against my boyfriend for his child support order?

Can my income count against my boyfriend for his child support order?

I am afraid that my BF’s ex, who does not work, is going to ask that my fincaces are factored into his child support payments. He moved in with me 3 weeks ago because he could not afford rent due to the large amount of child support he’s been ordered to pay. Will I have to help support this lazy woman?
