Child Maintenance Lump Sum
Options
Flurry
Posts: 6 Forumite
I have just received a £20,000 lump sum in lieu of maintenance payments for a 15 & 17 year old over the next four years, as my ex has emigrated. I'm interested in people's suggestions for how to treat this. I need access to £250 a month.
I imagine that if I put it in a bank account in my name, the interest will be taxed, so should probably put it in the names of the children....
Any suggestions gratefully received.
