			<title>Overnight reduction in child maintenance?</title>

			<description>I am sure there are places that explain the overnight reduction in child maintenance, but I haven't read it, nor have any plans to seek it out, as clearly it is unfair and wrong!



If a PWC has a child for 4 days (meaning 4 x 24 hours) a week and the NRP has the child for 3 days a week, then why would the NRP only get a 3/7th take off their child maintenance to pay?  



If all was just and fair the NRP should only be paying 1/7th of the child maintenance assesment... as there would only  ...</description>

Page nine of sixteen, I quote:

We aim to be professional and responsive, helpful and courteous in all our dealings with clients.



Personally we must have had dealing with over 100 different CSA staff over the years on the phone... and not one single one of them has been following the above quote!  Not one!!!  The only one who has treated us like human beings was a lady who worked for Falkirk... but then again we never spoke to her, we  ...</description>

			<title>NRPs time with QC reduced due to PWC wanting more money...</title>

			<description>It's very often a fact.  PWC will stop/reduce NRPs contact with the children in question so the PWC can get more money...  but it seems that the ones at The House of Lords weren't aware of this!!!  And more shockingly so... that one of them thought that the CSA is only involved if the PWC is on benefits!!!

			<description>Here's an alternative to CSA... one that is based on the childs needs... and what the parents can and are expected to pay according to their means...



This is from a different country, and how they work out what child support should be paid to the PWC.  My knowledge of the language isn't perfect... but I've done it to the best of my ability...  They do not have the equalent to CSA, and they encourage parents to work it out between themselves.   





Guideline for parents to work out how  ...</description>

In this section you will find information which was originally published for staff but which some professionals and advisors with an interest in child support may find useful. The information available includes the procedures used by staff when entering information onto the child support computer system and the guides used by staff when dealing with enforcement.



The above link will take you to CSA staff guides.  I have no intention of reading the whole thing myself,  ...</description>

			<title>CSA and arrears re-payment time???</title>

			<dc:creator>Admin</dc:creator>
			<description>I have yet to see any proof that it is the law that people have to pay any arrears owed in child maintenance within 2 years as the CSA has not only stated to me and my family, but I have also seen numerous other people have the same stated to them.



Now it seems that people aren't even getting the 2 years (which for so many is already impossible), but it has been shortened down to 18 months.



But what is more shocking then this (yes, it's possible... CSA can get even worse!), it seems  ...</description>
