Hello.
After 13 years of divorce, having paid without CMS intervention, my ex is now divorcing her current husband!
She is making a claim against me, as she has lost the financial crutch of her current husband.
She now has a new live-in boyfriend.
She earns £65-70k as a headteacher.
Will CMS ask about my SAVINGS - and what is the threshold? I have about 7k.
Also, will they ASK about my private pension?
I do NOT use it. Not until 2030.
I am 69 this year - and on a state pension.
I have no other earned income.
hi,
have CMS contacted you or sent a letter? 1st thing they check is HMRC records for earned income, but it seems they also take pensions into account if that's your main source of income. so many rules, a minefield.
