Iām new to mums net so hello everyone š
If anyone has advice on my situation I would be very grateful. My ex husband and I divorced 8 years ago and a āChristmas consent orderā was put in place which covered 2 children. My Ds has now reached 18 and is not currently in education so the payment for him has ceased (which is correct on our wording) as it was up to age 18 or end of full time secondary education whichever was later.
So my ds has decided to return to full time education in September and the course is an āapprovedā course so I should be able to reclaim child benefit for him. I have approached ex husband to discuss going forward in September and that we need to review but he is refusing to discuss and saying he will not pay anything to me for him full stop. My question is although the consent order is still in force for my dd who is 14 currently. Would I be able to apply to CMS in respect of ds once in fte as the consent order no longer covers him.
My ds will be financially dependent on me.
My ex husband is not easily approachable and hates paying āmeā anything.
Thank you for your time.
