Going from part-time to full-time.

74jax,
You could always close the CSA1 case, wait the 13 weeks (agree with your ex to continue to pay you during this time by standing order, to prove it was paid) and then reopen on CSA2. As you say, it would be a better deal for the ex.

We could do this, but as much as my ex and I get on, I can't be 100% certain that during the 13 weeks I would get a payment - I know that sound terrible and I hate even writing it about her Dad as he has never once failed in anyway, but I like the certainty that we have at the moment. I do agree through that it would be an option, but we've worked out on the CSA2 calulator what he would pay and adjusted accordinly. I send it back via transfer and the reference is something like 'CSA payment to ex' (so that I have a trace). That all sounds very calculating on my part when I've read it back and I don't mean it to, but it works for us both.


So, I applaud BOTH you and your ex, you sound like fantastic parents!

Ha ha thanks! I can not fault him or his wife in anyway towards our daughter, she loves going and loves her brother and sister to peices. They look up to her with such admiration and she never tires of them as she comes home just when they atart getting on her nerves :rotfl:

We might make good parents just not good husband and wife ha ha ha.

hi

I agree with the post previous to this, you are a good example of how people should behave in relation to children when a couple splits.


thank you
