Change from CSA 1 to new rules.
My partner pay the mother of his child direct even though the case was opened in 1998 so I assume it will be on CSA1. He has always paid above what the csa stated but is now on benefits and has been for the last 3 years and could do to pay a bit less. If he lowers the payment and his ex closes the case and re opens under…

CSA1, wait to migrate to 2012 scheme, or reassess now.
Hi all, Newly registered but been reading these forums awhile now, hopefully someone can help me. I'm the NRP, and have been on CSA 1 since 2001.

Diversions/Variations
Can anyone advise which regs apply now? We have a CSA1 case which is going to tribunal due to a re-assessment decision made 2012/2013.

Childcare Voucher Query
Hi, hope someone can help. I’m claiming child care vouchers at £124 a month as the person setting it up said I was a higher rate tax payer. Before salary sacrifices (additional pension and childcare vouchers) I was on £37K/pa which I didn’t realise classed me a higher rate tax payer. This would mean I only qualify for…

Overpayments and Arrears trouble
Hi I am the NRP in a CSA case that's been going on for years. I have promptly paid on time, always. A few years back, I discovered that my two eldest children were working. I contacted the CSA and informed them of this, and their response was that they would contact the PWC to confirm this. Of course, she didn't confirm…

How can this be right?
Hi, I have recently been re-assessed under CSA1 and been told it will be nil, the same as it has been for years. However, I received a call from CSA today stating that the PWC has closed the case.

What is going on with my case? Put on hold...
I have had a case open with the CSA now for what seems like ages. My ex denied paternity and then refused a DNA test. Finally they tracked him down at his current job and did a maintenance calculation, and he is already in arrears now. This was about a month ago. I was told they would then give him 2 weeks to make contact…

Another story i think is worth telling.
Again, happened a while ago, but it annoyed me at the time so i thought id post it. Two things you learn working at the CSA, some nrp's ( both men and women ) just do not want to pay for their children, might seem obvious if you have a case with us, especially a non compliant case, but the sheer number of people who flat…
