Husband’s ex uses CSA to line her own pockets
Actually this horror story relates to my fiancee and his payments to his greedy malicious ex wife and how she is currently using the deplorable agency to yet again, screw my husband to be for even more money to pave her path with more gold !!!
Whilst i agree that parents should pay for there children fairly with all situations taking into consideration, i certainly do not agree with the way that many use this agency corruptly.
The sleepless nights, the worry and arguments around our financial situation and i would stress that most incured by her is absolutely deplorable .I have had to stand by the ‘wayside’ and watch my exhausted husband to be working himself into the ground to make HER ENDs MEET whilst she cleared him out in the divorce courts, moved a man into my husbands home, whom he continued to pay the mortgage and CSA PAYMENTS on top of that and now only a few months ago yet again, more problems from that deplorable agency, the greedy female is trying to get the remainder of his army pension through another source- this time the CSA. I should add she is already in receipt of his pension which was agreed in the final divorce settlement.
However according to the CSA, that does not interest them !
I really do not know what we shall do, i am at my wits end with them and that female, however the only saving grace is one of the clauses in the eligibility of the pension clearly states that if the recipient namely her marries cohabits or in the event of my husbands death then all pension rights to her will cease.
The CSA obviously do not realise this and most likely will try to backdate the remaining of his pension to 2009 !!!! However the fact that she has been cohabiting with him on the quiet for numerous years and still taking his pension from him, which is illegal clearly doesn’t bother her at all.
In my opinion that agency should be abolished, sometimes i think that gentle enforcement is needed, however not when they are putting the other parties in more and more debt and in genuine cases like ours.
This female is actually defrauding my husband to be and the CSA ARE HELPING HER!!!! I doubt theyve taken into consideration the luxury lifestyle she lives with her partner and that he’s pretty minted, the fact she acrues nearly £2,000 per month in benefits, but obviously that doesn’t matter as long as were being ripped off, the evil other party, or that if truth be told it was her affair initially that broke the marriage amongst many other things.
The only thing i can do now apart from winning the lottery as we are absolutely determined she will not be getting another single penny, is make this public.
Because this female along with the CSA and their actions should be made public, she feels like a scorned woman because she was left with her children, however this female had been having an affair for years and now lives very nicely on it, i should also stress that i am a mother too ( my fiancee is not my daughters biological father. However unlike her i do not feel the need to rip other off.

You are in a similar position to an awful lot of people here. 2nd families struggle big time because of this Agency.
First thing I would do is stop all telephone calls with the Agency. They never say the same thing twice and if you ever need to back up anything they have told you they may not have a record of the telephone call. So put everything in writing to the Agency and request that they do the same.
Did your fiancee ask for a variation to be taken into account for the debts he was paying after their separation?
The problem here I would think is that the CSA would class the pension as income and therefore would try to take a share, maybe regardless of what the Court has said. If she has her partner living with her then this should be reported as it is benefit fraud. Another thing to watch out for is if you and your fiancee are claiming tax credits together as a couple the CSA may also use this as income depending upon who is the highest earner between you. From what I know this can be taken into account if the pwc asks for it to be.
About the eligibility part of the pension those clauses will probably only kick in once your husband has passed away and the eligibility for a dependant/spouse’s pension.
**husband to be, sorry
Interesting advice I am going through similar issues with the CSA ignoring direct the payments made to my ex so am being asked to pay twice, once direct and again via the CSA 30% of my income for one child, I have ask the CSA to only write to me as I will not take their phone calls, they refuse to write every thing has to be done over the phone two attempts at a phone call is enough for them to claim I refuse to pay and seek a direct deduction from my bank account or pay, they really are not interested in making a correct assessment, its all about clearing as much paper debt off the books as quickly as possible to meet goverment targets best consider it as a witch hunt rather than a agency placed to make any real assessment, all power and no accountability and they call this democracy !
Ian that happened to my partner. We were in discussions with the Agency over the arrears which we did not agree with. CSA had confirmation from my partner’s employer that he could not take calls at work. They tried to call house and then his mobile no answer as he was obviously at work. So they say non compliant and put DEO in place.
CSA Bolton is actually a private company (Vertex Data Sciene) who are contracted CSA clerical cases. If your case is dealt with at Bolton there is a thread that can be found on the Advice Forum site about some procedures that go on there. They have to make their figures look good so people who pay are continously paying.
Only thing that worked for us was getting a copy of our file to see what they had/had not done, and getting our MP involved. The CSA are eventually listening. I would recommend doing this and get your MP to take your case on.
I am having the same probs would like to arrange a meeting with some other victims of the csa and maybe have a demo. My email is. ( Swanseajack81@yahoo.co.uk ) of FB martin jock laird. This has been going on for to long help if you can if I can get some good numbers will start a group to make our voices heard

A PWC is NOT actually required to ask for it to be included.
Information pertaining to the CSA clearly states;
“Working Tax Credit is counted as part of net income if the parent without main day to day care’s earnings are higher than their partner’s earnings. When partners earn the same, we include half of the Working Tax Credit in the child maintenance calculation.”

Chall is that only working tax credits that the CSA would take into account as maintenance of is it also child tax credit?
I had been told before by the CSA that if the nrp and their partner are claiming as a couple the CSA will class the lowest earner as being in receipt of the tax credits and treat it as their income as they would be entitled to a higher award because of the lower earnings.
Carol,
Currently all CTC paid to a household are deemed the income of the NRP.
