Hello
My ex has put me back on CMS for the 3rd time even though I've always paid her and helped if we are together or not but this time I have had backpay of 20K before tax on 15/10/24. The CMS case was opened 18/10/24, because it was before I'm guessing I don't have to tell CMS. Would it be included in my next review if the case was not opened yet. I'm worried they will add 20K next time even though I don't earn that it was one off. She will be trying her best to get more as the CMS payment is lower then what I spent when we was together.
hi,
CMS will check HMRC what your income was for most recent tax year, 2023/24. they will go off that. they do state that you should tell them if your income has gone up or down by 25% or more.
