Why am I paying if we have joint custody?

Hi I’m getting 5.00 a week took off my benefits for child maintenance which me and my ex have joint custody so I shouldn’t be paying that.

How can I get this sorted?

  1. Actually as you are on benefits, the taxpayer is paying £5 per week.
    You just receive £5 less than you would had you never had a child.
    If your ex is in receipt of child benefit then they are recognised as the main carer and thus entitled to child maintenance.

  2. someYou can go people dont do themselves any favours.

    ok.

    there will always be a primary carer. and that is usually the mother. if you are not the primary carer. you pay.

    you can go to court and seek full custody if you want and if custody is granted then this would change the status quo.

    wouldnt advise it though.

    read all of the above perhaps read some ogf the other problems that others have to face and then consider yourself very lucky indeed.
