Earn back the money the CSA deduct from you

June 7, 2008

If you’re a NRP (non resident parent) and you’re having a couple of hundred pounds per month or more deducted from your earnings through a DEO (deduction from earnings order) you could earn that money back from the website WordsofWorth.co.uk.

You don’t need to go bankrupt, sell your possessions or worry how you’ll meet your bills. If you’ve a decent grasp of the English language and access to a PC you could register with WordsofWorth.co.uk and earn money from home by writing articles from them in your own time.

They pay £250 per month for a writing contract where you write just 80 blogs, or articles, per month on a variety of subjects. You know in advance what you need to write and how much you’ll get paid, so you can easily replace that money the CSA have taken from you.

Writing the content should take between 8-10 hours of your time per week, so for just a couple of hours a day you can easily recoup those CSA payments.

There’s also no limit to how many contracts you could take on, so if you prove your ability with one contract and feel you could manage two or three, you could even make more money than you were before the child support agency starting stealing from you.

Check out the website and see if you’re interested in earning money from home.

Looking for advice on the CSA

May 30, 2008

Basic outline my husband has a thirteen year old daughter. Currently she lives with her mother but for majority of her life my husband has been PWC. When he was PWC CSA would not allow us to open case as his ex continually opened cases against us claiming we never saw his daughter although she was living with us. This went on for three years before we were able to claim.

Despite continually chasing CSA never dealt with our claim and finally told me to stop wasting my time as ex is on benefits and we would get £0. His ex currently has daughter ( after she failed to blackmail us “if you don’t give me money you wont see her”) She is denying access and CSA have said we owe £71 per week. Why do we have to pay when she never paid a penny for years???? CSA not interested even though we have numerous letters from them saying my husband is PWC.

Assessment is also wrong as should be £56 a week based on their calclator but very reluctant to adjust figure. Why were CSA not interested when we were PWC but different story now????

Also his ex has said as soon as she gets money we can see his daughter again. All the time we were PWC she was still claiming all benefits as though she was a single mother !Also had her on phone screaming abuse!!! Stressed by it all and we have got our own baby to worry about. I have done more than his ex to bring up her daughter and this is the thanks we get!!

Throughout the CSA have told lies, claimed information posted did not arrive and been downright rude and unprofessional

Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

Data Protection Act

May 25, 2008

Hello

Following on from my previous e mail to you i omitted to tell you that a debt manager for the CSA in Belfast discussed my case with a complete stranger as the authorised person within the company i work for who should discuss my case was unavailable. Despite the person feeling very reluctant to discuss my situation with the CSA REPRESENTATIVE she was forced to take down information from a very aggressive debt manager

Data Protection Flaws again??? I would like some guidance

Thank you again

Arrears Assessment

May 24, 2008

Late last year I received an arrears assessment from CSA of over 23K. obviously I challenged this as it was the first contact I had had from the CSA since my ex wife and i separated in 1995. I appealed and am waiting for a hearing date. Following numerous phone calls it has been revealed that the arrears assessment did not take into account any housing costs for the period 1995 to November 2007 ( their admission!!).

I am currently paying 40% of my net salary (980 pounds a month ) towards these arrears and have done so for the past 5 months however, why should I be paying this amount when the hearing could be some 4 months away and I am having to default on mortgage and utilities to pay this absolute monster amount and is there anything i can do to at least repay a manageable amount until the tribunal hearing?

Thank you

How much should I pay for my 3 children?

May 10, 2008

When you have children by more than one partner you may wonder how much you should pay each ex partner for the children they have. Eric Connoly has emailed us to ask that question.

Eric says:

I have two children with one partner and we split up 5 years ago. I pay her £350 per calender month in an informal agreement plus incidentals ( shoes, clubs etc.)

My new partner left me and I have been contacted by the CSA on her behalf concerning maintenance for our son.

How can i find out how much I will pay and how to be fair to all three children?

Any advice will be gratefully received.

Many thanks, Eric

Generally Eric if you have three children, which you say that you do, you will be expected by the CSA to pay 25% of your income (after tax) to the CSA for them. This would be divided between the children.

As you say you were paying £350 per month for your two children with your first partner, according the the CSA you should have been paying her 20% of your income.

This does mean that your first partner should get less now than what she was receiving before, as instead of getting 20% she’ll be receiving a 2/3 share of 25%.

Make sure though that you inform the CSA that you are paying for your first two children. They will most likely want to get involved there themselves and take a cut of the money.

That’s how they operate I’m afraid.

If you don’t tell them however you may end up paying too much and not be able to afford it.

What is a DEO (Deduction of Earnings Order) from the CSA?

April 30, 2008

A DEO is a deduction of earnings order from the child support agency. This is when they contact the employer of the non resident parent to get the money they want removed from their earnings BEFORE they are paid to the employee.

The CSA has full authority to do this and does not need to go to a court in order to get approval. If an employer refuses to comply the CSA can impose a fine upon them.

From the child support agency’s website.

Although the decision to apply a DEO is taken by us and not the courts you would be committing an offence under section 32(8) of the Child Support Act 1991 if you do not comply with a DEO. This could lead to a prosecution and a fine.

If you appeal a DEO the CSA will generally not suspend the deduction of earnings order while the appeal is being heard, and they also do not care how much money you will be left to live on.

Speaking to payments department will not help as they’re sole interest is in recovering money they believe they are owed by the non resident parent.

Many fathers have been left with no option but to quit their jobs when faced with a DEO as they simply do not have enough money to live on.

New CSA Advice Forum

April 15, 2008

A fairer CSA for all‘ is a new forum dedicated to offering advice with dealing with the Child Support Agency. It’s not that busy at the moment but I’d imagine it will pick up fairly quickly.

There’s an even a special room for non resident parents to moan.

We’ll be launching our own forum here on CSAHell.com before too long. More on that when we have news for you.

Should I give my partners details to the csa?

April 5, 2008

Someone asked us the question:

Should I give my partners details to the csa

The short answer is no. If you’re a parent with care and you’re claiming benefit then the CSA will be notified and involved automatically, you can’t avoid it. However if you’re not claiming benefit then you have a choice to make on whether you involve the CSA or not.

If you do you should be advised that you won’t receive all of the money they take, and even if they do manage to get money from the father of your child it could be months or even years before you see any of it. The CSA are a messy dysfunctional organisation who have a past history of losing details, making mistakes and costing both parents with care and non resident parents hassle and stress.

It’s much better if you can work out any payment for your children with your ex-partner and don’t involve the child support agency at all. You won’t find them to be helpful.
