    My ex pays £69 per week for our daughter via DOE, although he claims his employer is deducting over £800 per month from his pay(he gets 30k plus PA) so something is going wrong there. I often have to call the csa to chase the employer to send in the payments because nothing arrives in my account. Following me sending a complaint letter to csa, Dec and Jan's payments arrived at the csa on 18th feb. Thought there was penalties for companies not adhering to DOE orders? obviously not enforced.
    So in conclusion; employer taking higher payments than sending and not sending when should either means:
    A) ex is lying about amounts (highly probable)
    or
    B) employer is doing something very dodgy

    Decembers should have arrived to the csa by 19 January at the very latest, January's by 19 February. Then you have to allow a week for csa processing.

    No excuse's for the employer, but I do know that unless you push, the csa seem to do nothing.

    Thanks for the replies.
    I was told about the rule regarding payment have to be received by csa up to the 19th of the following month, but the csa could offer no explanation as to why this had not been done or why it had not been enforced. They don't really seem interested in whether the payments reach them at all, never mind whether on time. I agree, that unless you push, they do nothing.
    My ex has now appealed and a copy of the paperwork have been sent to me, some of which are his payslips which show the correct deduction, so it seems it was a case of him lying about how much gets deducted, he feels so hard done by. On a salary of 30k plus bonuses per year, he really shouldn't complain about £69 per week, but he does!

    I wish my ex could read some of the NRP cases here.We have 4 kids together and he earns approx £34k pa.He gives 240.00 per month.I asked for a slight increase-i didn't name a figure, but to cut a long story short all he's ever bought our 10month old, is a box of nappies and an xmas present! He said If I want more to go to the CSA-who he claims will say he pays too much already. What annoys me Is I'm not greedy, I just want us to both play an equal part in evey area of the childrens lives.He can have as much contact as he likes with his kids, but chooses not to take It.

    traveller - if he has no other children on his net income he would pay £526 per month (assuming he doesn't pay into a pension scheme). If he does, he will have that knocked off his net income and then pay 25% of what is left. Do you know what he pays as pension? I would negotiate with him and say that he would be liable for almost DOUBLE what he is paying if you went to the CSA and see what he says - call his bluff.
  • similar figures mate ours are 650 a month for house with 5 kids to live on 650 is for one child 950 left for seven of us
