Having to pay CSA arrears already paid for

Cally_Smart

We had about £1200 off the 'arrears' but had to pay rest completely ,in fact still paying despite ongoing the case ending nearly 2 years ago. The fact is she had the money ,as you say, why would you be paying anything direct otherwise.In our case if the pwc wasnt getting anything why would she have left it so long to tell them? It doesn't figure at all. Our MP stepped in ,speeded up the inquiry process,we got my husbands SARS report direct from CSA with recordings of phone calls but at the end of the day they said she had to say all the money she received was CM which she wouldn't.
At least now the judges are realising that access shouldnt been witheld by pwc or they could be in contempt of court for Parental Alienation.
Hope you get some help with your case. Sadly, specialist CSA lawyers were much to expensive for us to afford.

Same as Cally, we got a bill for thousands of pounds of arrears which hubby had already paid, but the PWC denied that she had had anything as a lot of it was given in cash, even though hubby could prove that the money was coming out of his account each month he couldn't prove that it was maintenance for the children. He was also paying things like house insurance and tv license for the family home. The CSA did allow (after asking permission of the PWC first) half of the value of the bills that he could prove he'd been paying off the amount of arrears, but he had to pay the rest of the arrears, despite the fact that she had already had this money. Sorry can't be more positive!
