My son left school in December and is not yet in any sort of further education or training / apprenticeship scheme (as required by law?) He does not live with me and contact is virtually non existent. I understand that as Child benefit rolls on until the end of February that I must still pay CSA to that point. I am happy to do this but now Child Benefit should have stopped as we are in March (but hasn't due to a fraudulent claim) I should stop paying CSA. I have reported this fraudulent claim to Child Benefit but am not able to find out the grounds that it has been claimed on. What are my rights to ask Child Benefit to give me the information they hold so that I can contest it?
Hi There,
.
I don't think you have any grounds to ask for that information unfortunetely, I would imagine they would look into your claims for fraud though.
.
Maybe someone will no more than me though as I haven't ever had to deal with them.

Unfortunately, there is little you can do other than report the fraudulent claim, and whether that will get looked into is dubious as I haven't heard of them rushing to look into investigating these. If you can get evidence that supports your claim, you could try suing your ex in the small claims court, but I have no idea if anyone has succeeded in doing this.
