Why should you be paying for her living costs ? Tell the ex to get stuffed. She wants a roof over her head fine.. she pays for it just like you have to.

If she is claiming carers allowance because of sick relatives I hope that she is declaring this to the Agecny as well.. as this is classed as an income.

Any you should only be paying 15% of your income to her.

Good luck with your fight.

Hi Jim,

Hopefully this will help, but if you are only paying for one child, the CSA will calculate your payments as 15% of your Net Wage/Salary.

If you do have shared care, there are reductions based on the number of nights you would have your daughter each week…I can’t stress enough here, that it is based on overnight stays, and you will receive no reduction if you only have her during the day!! You may find your Ex will block your overnight access as she will receive more Maintenance!! The CSA “Advisors” will tell her this, so be prepared!!

Best of luck………you will need it, dealing with the CSA..

No – they wont. We have the same problem. Sounds like you need to go get some legal advice matey regarding the shared custody.

Hi Billy,

The agency are only concerned with calculating maintenance and are not there to deal with contact issues.
