    You can only offset arrears not ongoing maintenance.

    So what will happen in a situation like the op has? Will the CSA go in hard on a female with DEO's, LO's etc, as they do with male non compliance? Personally, I'd give her the maintenance, minus what she should pay me (whilst saving the rest for the arrears that will accrue). She's just extracting the urine really!

    If arrears can be offset, then I would stop paying for the number of months that equals what the ex owes, then pay again....on and on so that arrears are always equal.

    @fbaby All that would happen then is they would get an attachment to my earnings, good ain't it!

    I forgot about that! :( Can they not do the same to her? (presuming she's working that is) Well I hope they hammer and hound her like they do for NRP's!
