Please can anyone tell me if the child maintenance service payments are done in arrears or in advance? So if you stop work mid September will the first pay packet effected be October, September (or November as was the case with CSA). Evidently CMS operative dont know the answer and the result means either ex owes me money, i owe ex money or ex owes me an awful lot of money.
Are they actually any good at chasing NRP? And how susceptible are they to the NRP pleading poverty? Hes notified a change if income then sent nothing and ignored. They've said theyre a going to put back in place the previous assessment due to non response, are they likely to go back on it if he suddenly calls with a sob story.
Basically how badly am i likely to be stitched over by this? Im three phone calls down and already im being told different things by different people and they have literally done nothing in over a month.
