Can a payor impute income under Section 19 of the Child Support Guidelines?

Mr. Justice Broad in Johnson v. Johnson 2012 Carswell ONT 8411 on a motion for interim child support imputed income at an approximate midpoint of the payor father’s income as a car salesman compared to his previous income at a job from which he had resigned . He found that there was nothing to suggest that income could not be imputed to a payor under Section 19 of the Child Support Guidelines on an interim motion although the court was hampered by the lack of cross examination on the affidavit material and the lack of ability to have the issue fully flushed out as would be done in a trial.
