Working out child maintenance.....

I had a letter form CMS last month stating my payments were going up by around £100....very happy about that.

However, I have just received another letter stating that the payments are going back down which is confusing as the letter states:

"has a gross annual income of £46410.29. This is from the tax year ending 2020" and then "your existing calculation is based on Mr Cockwomble's current gross annual income of £33088.68. We're continuing to use this amount because it's still at least 25% different to the gross income given to HMRC"

Can someone please explain why they are not taking his actual earnings a month into consideration? he's clearly had a pay rise a year of £13,000 at least, probably more as he only declared the rise in income a month or so ago.

This is split between my DS and his other child. His wife probably earns this much and I don't think they have much of a mortgage if any and hasn't seen DS in over 2 years........I'm not bitter at all LOLOLOL. However, it does stop my brain from functioning when I receive these letters as I get a bit of a rage on Grin

Can you either type it out word for word or take a pic (removing anything identifying) It’s difficult to say otherwise. I worked at the CSA about 13 years ago so might be able to help but only if I have the full picture.

Thank you. I’ve taken a pic just not sure how clear it is.
