    ill tell ou what loopey you sit on your !!! im sure your ex can give you all is money so your comfortable and it doesnt matter how that leaves him.

    Ah sweetie...see, that's where you are making assumptions...I have 3 jobs and own my own home (yes, all mine - nothing to do with my ex).

    And I'm sure the 2 figure sum that he pays every month - and has only been paying for the past couple of months - aren't much of a dent in his income but it does make a difference to mine so am happy with that.

    Don't judge everyone by your ex's morals

    And as for the name comment - WOW...I have NEVER heard that before:whistle:

    In language I'm sure you will understand - woteva!! It's so obvious why you are deciding to start on me and quite frankly, for you, a little embarrassing:o

    Enough please. This enquiry is about tax credits. Nothing to do with parental responsibilities.

    I accept some contributors are sensitive when an NRP seeks help and automatically assume he is looking to exclude himself from liability.

    Making inflammatory "Jeezo" posts really does not help matters, I ask we keep to the facts, lets not have personal feelings against NRP's cloud the debate.


    You are quite right. Unfortunately, ILMY has been fed a load of tripe and has made his mind up on that and decided that I'm fair game...dear oh dear!!! Have brought better than that chav down...

    However, it's your thread so my apologies for trashing it (but was only answering to the crap being posted about me), so I will bow out.

    and p.s - I agree with you...the Aus CSA have it sussed and locked down and it's a shame that we can't have the same system.

    Ok Denny Kelloggs gave you good advice it is true that if an assessment is incorect then there is no time limit on an appeal, you need to sort this asap, although CSA will feed you the 13 month line

    Actually that is only a certain minority viewpoint of the forum who only seem to come out to post that - not actually help.

    Many PWC help many NRP's here but ultimately the rules are there and some NRP's don't like being told that hence why this is perceived by some (incorrectly) to be a 'NRP bashing forum'.

    It could be said that if a PWC doesn't agree with an NRP then they immediately get called all sorts of names and all sorts of assumptions made of them.

    And of course they have been some very obvious NRP's who are trying to duck out of paying but anyone who sticks up for them then needs their head examined. Bu there always are the hardcore few that do.

    There may be some other 'father type' forums but surely the CSA rules are the same there? Or is it just a place that PWC get vilified for daring to ask for support for their children?

    Sorry Loopy I disagree why would this site be a NRP bashing forum?

    We can all learn things from each other - and frequently do - I am a NRPP and PWC, I'm well aware of all sides of the argument (my hubs PWC being the most amazing creative CSA monster we know), but on flip side my x hubs was also very creative in trying to avoid CSA bing paid (just now a millionaire on paper, but hey that's why, he decides to hang onto his money rather than part with it for that ex - wife b**ch - which I never was, he was a Tom cat which is why I divorced him).

    Anyway everything aside the children are the important ones, and child support should be paid by all NRP on a regular basis, chldren do not feed and clothe themselves, but I do disagree with NRP bashing as some (not all) PWC can be in it for money - as the new rules with regard to benefit may prove in some cases - why work if you can sponge off the tax payers, gain benefits, and the numerous working fathers (employed not S/E of course, then DEO eaasy), also pay CS??? There is no incentive for some to work, it's terrible and like you when I was on my own with 2 d/s yrs ago, I also had 3 jobs, and my own home, I struggled from day to day but managed somehow, and pleased I did it, my children lived in a dcent area.

    Thank you, the tax credits question was cleared up many posts ago.
    My enquiry is not about having "grasped" anything.

    Two or more posters on this forum have confirmed I cannot claim tax credits for my children and that is the final position. However, this forum and the subject of NRPs and tax credits are not the sole source and subject of my enquiries and they continue elsewhere, some with some very good debate.
    Enough please. This enquiry is about tax credits.
    Make your mind up love.

    :D
  • I just LOVE how PWC's that seek child support get lumped with being 'stuck up and money grabbing'. These descriptions ALWAYS come from people like the small handful of NRP that regularly trawl this forum looking for any good excuse to jump in and be rude and obnoxious to other well meaning PWC posters on the forum. It makes me wonder what the stuck up bitter PWC ex's had to put whilst still living with these guys!

    And they always claim how happy they are and what wonderful wives they have and what great dads they are. Really?
  • Lovesdennys-You've mentioned a couple of times that your PWC is 'single by choice'. I'm curious how a mother of two of your children is 'single by choice', and how could this be proven to the CSA in perth? Wouldn't everyone with a failed marriage that agreed to separate be 'single by choice'?

    With regards to the debt, I believe the CSA could confiscate your passport and driving license, were you aware of this? New powers effective November 2008. Once you move to Austrailia, would you want to come back to the UK to visit? I don't know if they would remove your passport in Austrailia, but I would be asking the question before you go.

    It sounds like you would be happy to receive a nil assessment in Austrailia, if this was the case, would you still voluntarily send child support to your 2 children in the UK?

    p.s. I'm not NRP bashing, but now that your original tax credits questions have been answered, I'm just curious about what plans you will put in place for the children remaining.

    You are now asking for informaiton and court documents that I intend to give in evidence bfore a magistrate in Perth. Im afraid this is restricted information unsuitable for dfisclosure in a public forum.

    When a PWC makes a REMO application, its transmitted by the British Foreign office to the Authorities in Perth who then ask the PWC to complete a Questionaire. There are several questions on the form that apply to me. One asks the PWC whether the other parent is absent from his children, or has been excluded.

    I think you need to seek professional advice on the legal process the CSA needs to complete before it can sieze a passport and other documents, and what burden of proof the CSA needs to satisfy before this type of enforcement can be availed.

    I think your enquiry is also following the line that I am seeking to exclude myself from liability and have assumed my case involves enforcement.

    I dont know if you are expressing some kind of wishful thinking but enforcement is not what my enquiry is about.
