Attachment of earnings

Hi... I thought I would share my this with you and any advice would be welcome!!!

I have 2 AOE 1 from the notorious CSA and the other local council for unpaid council tax. The reason I thought I would write on here is...
I work for one of the Country's biggest care provider's and I have had my pay date change from the end of the month to the 12th hence I had to survive 6 wks until I got paid. the good news (I thought) is I got paid 6 wks money on the 12th August £1943.58 (lovely) after all the usual deductions I have taken home the grand sum of £612.52.
It looks like I have paid the local council £264.63 and the CSA £679.52. I feel like throwing in the towel and saying F~*k work and join that happy bunch of people that take from the Tax payer and don't give much back... I've had nothing but trouble from the CSA and never ANY HELP when I needed it...:mad::mad::mad:

So what advice are you looking for?

What help are you expecting? A some point you have accrued arrears and refused to pay so a AOE has been put on your salary. Your children are getting money due to them. Not sure what the problem is?

I think other half to this story is he has only recieved 4 weeks pay instead of 6..have to agree though you did have the deductions coming to you.

The problem with this is the protected income, they still see it as 1 months income, as it is an income thing with payroll, so instead of adjusting at payroll to the relevant extra time for protected income, then they take EVERYTHING above...!!!

This needs to be addressed if they have only left you with the same income as a normal month as that is NOT what the protected income would be, raise a complaint with your payroll, as they will or should not of passed this money on yet... And get this sorted as a matter of urgency...

If you do not raise it with payroll, then nothing you can do about it... But basically the DEO's you have will have the figures for protected income and that needs to be adjusted for the period in case not the normal month...

You maybe another one the CSA has forced out of work, however don't expect the csa or any of the pwc on here to care.

I quit my job as my protected earnings did not enable me to pay my rent and council tax let alone buy food, benefits kept my family going for a while and now I am happily self employed...

So you moved on, had more children that you obviously couldn't afford if you cant afford your children from CSA case, then let the tax payer pick up the tab for all your children and now happily shirk your responsibilities to your first set of kids by working self employed?

Your friends and family must be so proud of you!

Very proud of me yes, I can afford my children thank you in fact tomorrow where off on holiday for a week.

I had no issue paying 20% of my wage, granted I did begrudge paying for a child I have never seen but 40% was just too much.

She has spent 18 years trying to screw me because she couldn't accept that she was only my plaything when we where together and only had the child because she thought I would stay with her hahaha.

Now I have beaten her at her own game my friends and family are very happy thankyou, she could of accepted the payment I offered but no she wanted more and now gets nowt...............result!!!!

One of those who claims to be self employed but earns very little, so asks for Tax Credits and maybe ask for some of your rent and council tax to be paid too? If so, that little self employed trick will be stopping when you are moved to Universal Credit.

Under Universal Credit; there will be no more of "I'm self employed, work 24/30 hours per week but only earn a fiver" as you will be classed as earning a minimum of 11.5k per year (35 hours per week at national minimum wage) for benefit calculations. Your wife will have to work too and earn at least minimum wage per hour (unless you increase your weekly wage to cover the money Universal Credit requires her to earn).

I don't claim any benefits or tax credits now thank you...

I should think she is glad you didn't stay now. You sound like a right catch.

18 years...doesn't that mean your CSA stops? Not that you have paid for your child, from what you have put.

I would have been ashamed of my father if he didn't pay for children from a previous relationship.
