Thanks for responses. So in the the first reply u are saying if i go to court i could get him to pay ? I honestly could not afford court costs. Hiya sammy u say it is correct so that is not good I think it is ridiculous that this is the law but i guess if that is the law nothing can be done. I dont think he will be back cos he is applying for permanant recidency in canada

He may well have problems applying for permanent residency if he's wanted by police for fraud in the UK!

Great info Anxious Mum! My ex had to decide on 2 job offers, one in Germany and one in Canada (he was made redundant in the UK)

Now I wish he'd gone to Canada! We are both Canadian. I've had a very long uphill struggle trying to get Child support and to be honest have almost given up hope of achieving anything. It is only my feelings of 'right and wrong' that have made me persist, and if nothing else than to ensure he feels some stress from his selfish actions.

REMO is making contact and things are finally under way (I know because he has threatened me and called me the usual (bitter, twisted, etc) via a nasty email recently). Its all a 'to and fro' scenario, with each delay costing the support for my child.

These fathers should be so ashamed of themselves.

Anyway, great advise and I'll keep this all in mind should ex ever move to Canada. Sounds like the Canadians have got it right (child support)

If he doesn't already have his PR, he is very likely working under the table....as working permits in Canada are not very commonplace! If there is a warant for his arrest, he will not get PR in Canada. If the 'crime' and the extent of it would warrant jail time in Canada, but not here, he also wouldn't get PR. I know someone here who is here with his Canadian wife because he had a Drunk Driving charge here, he was refused entry to Canada based on that!

As part of the PR application process he will require written proof from the csa ( or from the other parent if no csa)that all child support is up to date and not in arrears and has to provide evidence that support will continue to be paid until 18 th birthday .

PR will not granted without this proof and evidence.

he will have to make a sworn statement in front of a notary about this

he MUST include the children in his pplication even if he is not taking them if he doesnt then is PR will never be legal and if ever found out even if 20 years down the line he will lose PR and be deported

The age actually depends on the province that the NRP is living in. In our case the NRP is in BC.....and child support is in situ until the youngest is 19 - as that is the 'legal' age in BC.

sorry yes i should have pointed out that each canadian province is like a seperate country with different laws etc most are 18 some are 19

also if he is only on a temp work permit its very possible he wont get PR what is his occupation this will give a clue on likelyhood of PR . Otherwise he will be out of Canada when temp work permit expires.

We are very very particular who we allow to become PR in canada!! the rules get tighter by the minute with very much canadian jobs for canadians in the current economic climate more than ever.

Hi well i contacted my local Magistrates Court which is Sunderland and i then got passed onto the REMO office so i phoned them and they said that i need to get a REMO from my local Magistrates Courts so i then phoned them back and told them that i got told i have to contact them about getting a REMO and they said that they dont do them so am still no further ahead so am not sure what to do next i think i would have to get in touch with a solicitor.
Thanks in advance for help. Ashleigh

The Sunderland Magistrate Court is wrong, and you need to insist that you speak to someone in the family law section of their court office. Whoever you spoke to obviously doesn't know this area of law.

I would call or visit them personally, they are causing you silly delays.
