Self employed father not declaring his correct earnings
April 17, 2010
I had a call from the csa this morning.
After investigating my case they had awarded my 9 year old daughter payments of £5 per week from her father, who is self employed and has his own buisness & has a new father in law who has fiddled his books. He does cash jobs, he doesnt declare and laughed when i told him it was a joke.
He has far more money than me, which is evident with regular holidays, meals & trips out, numorus cars & new vans ect.. I went to the csa for help, all they have exceeded in doing is allowing him to get away with what he said he would, which was to fiddle it!! I guess with £5 per week her new school shoes will take a while!

How I agree with the letter regarding self-employed fathers. My daughter who seperated from her partner June 2009 has received 3 x payments of child maintenance for her son and nothing from November 2009. She contacted the CSA who began proceedings. Her ex-partner did not co-operate with the CSA until an interim amount of £113.00 per week was forwarded to him – then he acted.
He is self-employed and declared his earnings were approx £114.00 per week and his maintenance was assessed at £6.86 per week. He is living in a large detached bungalow runs 2 x vehicles how I wish I had his life style on £114.00 per week!
This is all because he is self-employed and a director of a limited company and in the accounts he claims his directors pay is the aforementioned £114.00 per week.
What happens to the rest of the money from the company.
It beggars belief that nothing else can be done – all this is legal and above board. The CSA have been very good with my daughter but at the end of the day £6.86 per week is pathetic it doesn’t even buy half my grandsons weekly food!
Good job she has good parents.
