More details to this question:
I just received a proposed order for child support in California, i live in Nevada with our child, he lives in Sonoma county Calif. On the order it showes his income but does not have his Military income included as his finances, only his work monies so the order is based off his work income only. And 0 dollars for arrearages and she will be 4 in June. He never supported her in her life thus far. The courts asked me in this order to call them immediately with any known income the other party has and i don't know what to do

You need the assistance of a lawyer knowledgable in this area. The short answer is "yes, it counts"; the California law on the subject is pretty clear. See Legal Note Vol. 46 — Military Allowances for Child-spousal Support, posted at http://www.willicklawgroup.com/newsletter/vol-46-military-allowances-for-child-spousal-support/. And there should be arrears in your order as well; why there is not is not clear from your question. Seek out a family law specialist.
