hi,
can you help.?
My son(I am the father), was in further education at college up until June 2014 and never went back to college after the summer break but I continued to pay child maintenance directly to the mother of my son(not via CSA) up to January 2015 when he started full employment(40hrs/week), I have since found out today that he has "jacked the job in" because he doesn't like working there and is planning on returning to college to attend a further education course - Does that mean I have to restart Child Maintenance payments again.??
I think he has to be under the age of 19 when he enrols at college for his mother to be entitled to child benefit and therefore maintenance. It might be a good idea to give Child Maintenance Options a call to clarify. π
