So, CMS payments are calculated off gross pay before Tax deductions, then paid after tax deductions.
My ex recently re-did the calculation and requested by are increased by £120 per month, a struggle at the best of times never a cost-of-living crisis we are facing. I am now married with 2 young children, anything they need is what is left after bills etc are paid. Obviously, I do not want to take anything away from my eldest who lives with her mam. I just find completely unfair that as one CSA person put it “your child is more important than the tax man, that is why is calculated before tax” but it appears that my other 2 children are not as important, how is that fair???
The system needs a complete overhaul.
