Always paid ex direct but now CSA wants thousands of made up arrears

I seperated from my then partner in 1998. At that time my ex partner was not working for 4 months then found work.

I have just recieved a letter from the child support agency stating that they want me to pay £12000 for those four months and that they closed my case in 1999 which i was not even aware of and the hve re opened it.

I have always paid my ex direct this was years ago can they do this?

  1. do you have proof of the payments made to your ex – bank statements showing payments or receipts signed by the PWC? If so have you sent this info to the CSA. Also ask them for a complete accounts breakdown and have them confirm when the case was closed, why it was closed along with the date the case was re-opened.

    Will your ex confirm that she has received direct payments ? If so the CSA should be able to adjust the debt accordingly
