Would this really happen if I remarry?

I have heard a story claiming that if i remarry, my ex partner will receive more money as the CSA clowns will take in to account our overall income, is this true?

Why should my new partner have to pay for a child that she has absoloutly nothing to do with?

Answers very much appreciated on this matter.

  1. Your partners income won’t be touched or taken into account for Csa purposes! They may however take into account any tax credits you get as a family for calculation purposes making the assesment much higher

  2. They stopped asking for partner’s income for all cases started from April 2003.

    Cases opened before April 2003 had a very complex formula to determine the maintence due using things like exempt income,protected income and disposable income after housing costs as well as looking at the PWC’s income.
    To decide whether the NRP’s household could afford the proposed liability they also looked at the NRPP’s income, if they could afford it that was the amount used if it couldn’t be afforded then the liability was reduced.
    The maintence liability was always determined before the partner’s income was looked at.
    If the partner’s income was not available then they would impose an interim maintenance assessment type B which did not use any protected income.
