CSA question

Miaspa_2010

My CSA issue's started in 2001 and are looking to end in January 2011 when my arrears are all cleared.:j

My questions doesn't relate to my own plight my ex partner and I entered a private agreement in October 2008 when the rules changed, but one thing still puzzles me.

I have will have paid thousands to the CSA when my arrears are all cleared but all my ex has received is £150 from them.

Yes she did receive income support and I guess she still does.

From my understanding since 2003 she was intitled to an extra £10 a week under the Maintenance Premium Scheme if she was claiming income support, but she has got nothing.

Is it worth me writing a letter to the CSA from the both of us asking for clariication or should I let sleeping dogs lie?

Thanks for any input.

if your case was "old Rules" then she was not entitiled to the £10 maintenance premium as this applied to "new rules " cases only (up to Oct 08)

Not only was I worse off cos we were on the old scheme she was as well then?

Oh well never mind, was hoping I could get my ex some extra cash.

One other thing if the private agreement falls flat do we go back to the old scheme or is it a new claim?

if you left the CSA and had a private agreement then the CSA case would close.

If you reverted back to using the CSA within 13 weeks then the claim would be under old rules, if you revereted back to using the CSA after 13 weeks then the case would be under new rules.

That would be blessing..........is the case closed even if I still have a £574 left in arrears that I am paying off monthly? (this is money owed to the secretary of state not the pwc).
