    I think its 20% of his net earnings, you could try and come to a maintenance agreement between yourselves instead of involving the CSA.

    You wont get a council house cause you own a property, although if you sell it you will be entitled to go on the housing register, it might be better for you to stay in the house with children instead :)

    If I am correct, you will only receive a minimum amount from the CSA if you are in receipt of benefits (£10 a week I think).

    Please correct me if I am wrong.
