Hi all
I earn £42500 per year I get quarterly bonuses but these fluctuate one qtr it could be £800 another £2500
last year I earnt a total of £51,000 but the CMS have it as £55000 ,my payments for my child are £511 pcm
my question is where do they get that £55000 fig from
when I challenged them that it was wrong they said that unless my earnings fell by £13000 then nothing will change
my ex has made sure that I have her for the minimum period overnight so she gets more money
the more I earn the more she gets
im all for paying for my daughter but the payments up until July last year were £371 pcm
I was told on the phone by CMS that they look at your last few wage slips and work it out from that in July which means they look at the bigger bonus slip and use that is this true
