CSA make life altering mistakes and show no remorse for it
My csa hell started back in 2009. They decided that I should be termed as resident parent for my eldest child and my ex resident for my other 2. As she was a higher earner than myself I estimated that our claims on each other would pretty much equal each other out. Her £50000 per year job in the family business dropped to 13000 and her hours dropped to 19 ( apparently just the right amount for maximum tax credits).
The csa recommended I go to tribunal. At tribunal the judge informed me that as I only had the children for 45% of the time. I had organised our home etc according to the csa s original desision so was put in a financial hole. They assured me that the amount I was paying was correct and all 3 of the kids were on my exs claim. They told me that my case was being transferred to the Bolton department as they could not longer deal with my standing order.
Four years later it was discovered that they weren’t all on the exs claim and I had to pay more per month and £4000 in back pay. There had been many other issues over the years with them losing payment records etc so I had been recording phone conversations with them for some time. They admitted that the error was theirs yet I am the one who will end up homeless and trying to come to terms with it all whilst suffering depression caused by this situation. Are they really allows to make mistakes like this and just wash their hands of it.

This is a case for the Parliamentary Ombudsman to investigate (PHSO)
Take your case to your M.P. including all paperwork. Explain the whole debacle to them and ask for your case to be referred to the PHSO on the basis of prolonged and continued maladministration.
Highlight the CSA hell website to your M.P., to use examples of the current dysfunctional state of the CSA, and the misery it s causing to many people.
The sooner this shambolic ‘civil servants club’ is shut down the better.
The case is with ICE at the moment. I’m not sure if they will be able to help

Be wary of both the ICE and your M.P. Where they know you have a serious and strong case, and they may be two faced with you, as if they are helping you, but are really playing the game of burying or whitewashing your complaint.
That is why you should ask your M.P to forward the complaint to the PHSO.
Basically, they are all under handed liars, who do not like anyone challenging them or the bent system.
What happens between parents and their children is nothing to do with grade 1 clerks and bent executives at the CSA or bogus officials at the courts.
Good luck.
