Hi no she would end up with more money cos as soon as u have a child if u claim child tax credits they also count that money as part of his income n take some of that too. Ridiculous
yes both children are then entitled to same so her money would be halved xx
her children will not cost her less to raise because you have one child, and what about if you were in her position. if they have an agreement and its working well between them why are you trying to disturb their settlement. i was married to a man who had kids and i never ever got involved to the point even up to today I don’t know how much he was giving for his kids, that’s none of my business since it’s his kids.
I have a child with my ex and two with my current partner and you know what as soon as my kids were born I stopped paying her and I got things myself for my other child.
If he is on the CS2 system then his income will have 15% deducted before a calculation for child maintenance is made. The CSA is a third party if they are asked to make the calculation and he is paying directly because if he defaults the PWC can ask them to collect.
That’s not the case as we found out. My partners ex got more money not less. They took 15% of my childrens tax credits and his 1st son to his ex was entitled to 15% of his income and our 2 children together only 20% which CSA are basically saying our 2 children are worth less than his 1st child. A totally unjust system putting lots of families and NRP into poverty. All children should be equal in my eyes 🙂
Totally disagree with this comment. It has everything to do with her when her child tax credits for her child will be used to pay for his other children. You also don’t know the full situation if they live together and the children stay then perhaps she is also providing for them in some way!!
Karen got it right 15% of your child tax credits will be calculated into how much is payed so payments will go up not down. My advice would be not to inform them if you decide to go ahead with having a child together
well Ellie you have the right to disagree as much as I have the right to make a point, it’s a choice your make when you marry with someone who got kids, they are going to be her/his potential kid sister/brother so it’s normal she also contribute directly or indirectly and I reiterate,in my case I’ve never ever got involved, Anyway CSA is a bare minimum basic that needs to be paid according to one’s circumstances not a super achievement people can be proud of. A kid is a long term responsibility and “investment” especially when you look at childcare and schooling price.
A/ I did not post this question and b/ I’ve had confirmation that non off my earnings will go towards her CSA money and that it WILL drop soon as we send them proof of child benefit and as we earn too much to claim for tax credits and they will only take 25% of HIS earnings into consideration c/ the twisted woman who posted this spelt my name wrong you pysco!
You can only pay 25% of your wages no matter the number of kids. 25% is already paid for two. When the third child is born that is taken into account so the payment he is paying will drop and that is directly from csa itself!
Well Nina….(yes I know its you the ex and not DANNIELLE the supposed poster of this) to answer your money will reduce. More so for the fact your ex has over paid you for a while and also just to add to your future speculation…the more children they have together the more your money will reduce. Also in the extremely unlikely event that they part ways – whatever money is paid to you from your ex will be equally divided between both you and DANNIELLE (btw – that’s how u spell her name!)
So next time you want to find this info out try posting your own name so myself and DANNIELLE don’t wet ourselves from laughing at you being so thick!!!
That is all 🙂
Fadela – just so you know, the poster of this question is the actual ex named Nina trying to find out for herself if her money will reduce. It is not her ex husbands partner as she does in fact stay out of their business. It is only because she has received the email responses to this that she is aware of this post. Also, she is due their child in 3 months – not ‘if they have a child’ as the post states.
Also – its not that his other children cost less but the fact his expenses increase by having another child therefore the amount he has to pay will reduce. (I have a same situation hense why I know what happens)
And for others stating about tax credits etc – neither of them receive benefits as they both work full time so tax credits is not a factor.
The poster (who is actually the ex/receiver of the csa) is just bitter that CSA have informed her themselves of the money being reduced and said ex has threatened the childrens father that she will stop his access to the children if her usual amount is not paid! AND she spends said money on herself and kits her kids out in clothes that don’t fit them while she pops off on girly holidays with her mates!!
Just stating the facts.
Sooooo long story short…..NINA – Get a life. Better yet….get a proper job rather than scrounging off your ex.
I would cut that down to£ 350
