I can’t give what I don’t have to the CSA

August 29, 2012

My name is paul,and am an absent parent,an yes i shirked my responsibility as a father. until recently i was making regular payments to the CSA of £120.00 per month for arrears,and as such everything was fine. id,e payed back almost £10,000 and then in December of last year i had a re assessment and it jumped to £277.86 per month,the assessment had bin accruing at a rate of £425.00 per month, i agreed to pay this amount but a outstanding balance of £4175.00 was out standing.

I have bin constantly harassed bullied into paying this money at an amount of £238.00 that’s 33% on my wage after deductions. i cannot pay this amount as it will lead to my job loss and loss of my home, they say this deduction is a gesture of good will,but has to be payed by wot ever means. i have had 2 case workers Janet and Arlene, the information goes to to many people who seem to make there own mind up.

I demanded a manager call me back to sort this mess out,but that got know were,i was told that the secretary of state wants his money back, i am sick and fed up with the constant phone calls demanding there money, I CANT GIVE WOT I DON’T HAVE.

    CSA only look at your income and not rent, monthly commitments etc. CSA say maintenance is a priority debt which should be paid before your rent and household expenses!

    When arrears are involved CSA can take 40% of your net salary. If you manage to be repaying less than that then the CSA would see it as a goodwill gesture.

    Have you completed an income and expenditure form? This should prove tothe CSA that you cannot afford their repayments and they may reduce it

    Don’t deal with the CSA directly. Use http://www.nascsa.co.uk instead or at least to represent you and they will help correct the issues.

    The CSA stress us all out thats the game they play.
