CSA Payments with other children invloved

debt_destroyer

Hi


I currently pay CSA for my daughter, I have since met my new partner and are now living together and she has 3 children. As we are a couple we share the bills and obviously having her three children there is a lot more to pay out, will this have an effect on my CSA payments?

Yes, you will be able to pay less CSA; put your exact numbers in here..

A 25% discount would be applied so yes your assessment could go down. However, if your household is in receipt of tax credits then they are taken into consideration so 25% of those would be used in the assessment.
