Hi all just a quick question to see if anyone is already in the same predicament!! i have recently found work as a driver working for an agency but like all agency work its not guaranteed some days i will be working some days there is no work how will the CSA work out my payments as obviously i cant pay what i dont have
many thanks
Might be best to have a word with the CSA - I think they may start you on £35 per week and then amend that as you can produce payslips to show the average - hopefully someone on here can confirm or correct that.
Are you currently paying through the CSA?
im only assessed by the CSA i dont pay to them i pay straight to my ex and i will be moving from monthly pay to weekly pay im on the old system to so god knows how they will work it out
Hi Barnster
Thank you for your post. I am William the Child Maintenance Options consultant. From what you have written, it appears that you may be using the Child Support Agency’s (CSA) Maintenance Direct scheme. If this is correct, you may wish to contact the CSA directly to discuss your query. This is because we do not have access to your case information. You can find the relevant contact details on any letters that you may have received, or by visiting Gov.uk at https://www.gov.uk/child-maintenance/contact. You can also also find more information on how the Child Maintenance Service works out child maintenance on Gov.uk at https://www.gov.uk/how-child-maintenance-is-worked-out/how-the-child-support-agency-works-out-child-maintenance.
For more information on the ways to set up child maintenance, please visit our website at http://www.cmoptions.org. Alternatively, you can call us free on 0800 988 0988 between 8am and 8pm Monday to Friday or 9am and 4pm on a Saturday. We have a sorting out separation web-app that you may find useful. It offers help and support to separating and separated families. The link is: www.dad.info/divorce-and-separation/sorting-out-separation.
