    CMEC are introducing legislation that allows them to do a admin order and as such they can get round the statute of limitations they WILL send the bailiffs
    I don't remember saying the they wouldn't send round the bailiffs.....here is what I actually said
    'However they will try to use other methods to collect the debt'


    so why tell someone who comes on here how to " slow them down"
    Why not? As you are no doubt aware, the csa no longer have to go to court to get a deo. I am just trying to buy the OP some time.
    The OP does not have to take my advice nor do they have to take anyones advice on here.The OP has to make their own mind up as to which course of action is beneficial to themselves


    if the debt is owed then it is owed its about paying it back at a reasonable rate
    If the debt is owed then I agree with you here

    There is still a statute of limitation on admin orders, July 2000 in CSA cases unless you can point to anything that suggests otherwise. A AO is just the same as other organisations use, but they can only go back so far. There will also be the right to appeal AO's if they are made, but only on specific grounds.

    The CSA have never (well for more than 10 years at least) needed a court order to do a DEO on a PAYE NRP.

    It is unlikely that they will be very sympathetic but if you are self employed then you could set up a standing order to pay back what you think you can afford, but this may not stop action. However by not dealing with bailiffs the debt will simply be returned to the CSA in most cases for further action.

    As for the arrears, you will also need an explanation of the calculation amount that caused the arrears. It is likely you had a period of liability followed by a long period of a nil rate. It is quite possible that the first rate is incorrect so you need to look at those figures
    Nothing to see here :beer:

    A admin order (liability order) is NOT subject to the statute of limitations to get a order you need to go to court its the going to court bit that is subject to statue of Limitations the CSA new Admin Liability order is but in place by CMEC itself and as such because they are not going to use the court the statute of limitaions does not apply
