If he is earning nine hundred a week how do you calculate child support at a hundred per week ?
There's a child maintenance calculator on the Direct Gov website. Think a non resident parent is supposed to pay 10 or 15% of their income to the parent with care of the child and then there are deductions for time that the NRP has the child. All very complicated.
however, nothing to stop the OP from negotiating a mutually acceptable sum.0 -

Assuming you less than £156k
At 70k he would fall into the basic plus rate.
which is
12% of the first £800 weekly income
9% of the income from 800.01-3000 weekly
In this case - if it's £1,346 per week, he would pay:
£96 basic
£49 'plus rate'
- £145 per week.
It gets tricky when calculating the reduction for time the child stays over. (which is why it is expected that the receiving parent should cover day to day costs)
1-2 nights a week, reduce by 1/7th
2-3 nights a week, reduce by 2/7ths
3-4 nights a week, reduce by 3/7ths
Over 175 nights in a years, reduce by 50% + £7.
145 / 7 x 5 = £103.500 -

It's not that complicated, the information is above. Hope it helps0 -
Excuse me?
It's as much a presumption to say she's popped out for tea and scones as it is to say she's going clubbing until 4am.The word "dilemma" comes from Greek where "di" means two and "lemma" means premise. Refers usually to difficult choice between two undesirable options.
Often people seem to use this word mistakenly where "quandary" would fit better.0 -
I don't think the OP will need to worry about the overnight deductions as judging by his present lifestyle he simply couldn't fit them inAssuming you less than £156k

I am sure op would welcome overnight deductions as it would mean child has relationship with father which is more normal than just few hours visits. And she has a night or two to herself .
As she does not count on any CM at all she does not strike me as prioritising money enough to fit NRP time around money.The word "dilemma" comes from Greek where "di" means two and "lemma" means premise. Refers usually to difficult choice between two undesirable options.
