Taxes and child support.?

My boyfriend started a co. w/ the financial support of my family. This is our 2nd year. I work with him, and do all of the clerical stuff for the co. We live together and have 4 kids living with us. He has 3 kids outside of our relationship. I know his taxes can be held for nonpayment of child support, but if we were to get married (it is a plan), will they be able to take my earnings as well since we will file joint return? Do you have to file a joint return if you are married? What if the co. is in both of our names (a partnership) will they be able to garnish wages if the check is also in my name? He isn't trying to avoid child support, in Tx. they aren't very understanding if you get behind.
Thanks for the help.

I'm in the same situation. Keep everything seperate. They can take anything that is joint. I have researched this to great extent. You can research it online and find the same results. If you get married, they can not include your wages in deciding the CS amount and they can not touch your pay. They can take anything joint (including cars) if he falls too far behind.

Child Support Enforcement in NY is AGGRESSIVE. I would file jointly and keep everything separate.
