Hi, do I read that right that you are STILL paying the CSA when your children are 31 & 28? That’s totally not right. The CSA only have authority up until your children are 20 or start full-time employment, whichever is the soonest. In any event once child support ends they legally are no longer kids so thats where your liability ends – you need to stop paying via them and get in touch with the citizens advice or a decent solicitor to get that back from them!
