    He’s earning more. I’m the weaker partner after the split (he stayed in the house), I’ve had to buy somewhere with the help of a family loan. He paid spousal maintenance before I got my job before.

    If I switched to UC I would be getting roughly the same if not slightly less so I don’t see the point in trying to switch.

    I wanted to get the SM sorted first as it’s more than child maintenance. We have them 4 nights / 3 nights alternating.
