FC §4058(a)

Type: California Family Code

Summary

Annual gross income means “income from whatever source derived” — includes but is not limited to: commissions, salaries, royalties, wages, bonuses, rents, dividends, pensions, interest, trust income, annuities, workers’ compensation, unemployment/disability insurance benefits, social security, severance pay, non-need-based veterans benefits, military housing/food allowances, spousal support received from non-parties, and business income (gross receipts less operating expenses).

When to use

Cite when arguing for inclusion of specific income sources in the guideline calculation (e.g., rental income, trust distributions, business profits, side income). The “whatever source derived” language is intentionally broad.
