Surely the CSA should ensure that the money is spent on the children
I have 3 children ages 12,14 and 17. I am currently paying CSA £367 per month. I have just been told by the CSA I have to pay this amount till they are 20, also my son has a job alongside college I asked if this affects how much my ex gets they said no she still gets the same amount.
I have to prove I have the children more than 67 nights a year which I do. When I see my children they smell of cat wee they look awful there clothes dont fit properly I have a wardrobe of clothes with me for them.
My wife ran off with another man took the kids with her now has a 2yr old with him, there dirty and lazy the pair of them.
It’s not fair surley the CSA should ask for some sort of receipt off the parent to prove that the money is actually being spent on the children. Can I alter any of this im finding things hard.

I’m afraid not! I tried the same, I even said I would provide receipts for clothes and other essentials I have bought! I asked if they could take this from my monthly payments as well as the school clubs I pay for! But no, that’s not allowed!!! Instead our payments go towards supplementing someone else’s lifestyle and my kids don’t see any of it! Legalised fraud in my opinion!
new rule say a father can have a say what it spent on but you well need to get it in writing with lawyer ect
I collect of my lads dad through csa but I with it I put credit on my boys mobile, money on his lunch acc although I make his lunch so he can snack, buy everything he needs before I even use for his living costs as I am also responsible for half we don’t all milk the system 🙂
No you wont pay that amount until they are 20. You pay 25per cent for 3 kids wen the 17yr old stops education or goes to uni or hits 20 then ur payment reduces to 20 percent until thr next one cones of age etc then it drops to 15 percent for last single child. Mind you once 17 yr old is off hand ur suddenly be in arrears etc and put payments up. I suggest you make regular calls asking if everything is up to date then wen liability for 17 yr old comes near to ending double check wiv csa ur upto date. They will say yes but hey all of a sudden arrears. Been there so get it in writing.
Look guys . I’m a NRP . It’s really matters not what your ex does with the money. She will have already spent on the children. Yeah maybe you payment coincides with some large payment she makes but we would all be the same. All you can do I not pay any addition cash.
