CMS and Uni question.

[Name99]

I know CMS don't send letters anymore and it's all done online.
I can't find out in the portal as it states last year's payment schedule and my annual review is in November and it's showing payments up until then as what they are now.
My question is my son turned 18 in March, he is off to University so maintenance stops.
When will it actually stop, child benefit stops on the 31st August, when does CMS stop.
Thanks

I think it’s 7 September, some time that month anyway.

I think its September too. Im not expecting any more apart from arrears. It pisses me off that non resident parents aren't expected to contribute when they're children are at uni but resident parents have to!

My son is staying at home rather than uni accommodation so it's going to cost me exactly the same to feed and clothe him.
His dad has never contributed anything other than maintenance which he is forced to pay.
The payment date is the 14th so I was wondering what the 14th September amount will be.
The online portal makes no sense, it's telling me that it will be the same amount that was calculated last November.

Yes indeed. And we have to pay whatever our kids need, while the paying parent only has to pay a tiny fixed proportion of his income. After he’s saved for his pension of course, his savings have to take priority over his kids.

Well after another stunt he's pulled tonight over a contribution to school uniform for my younger DC he's finally alienated both his children with absolutely no bad mouthing from me at any point over the years.

My eldest son gave up on him a few years ago, my younger one has finally seen him for what he is tonight.
I no longer get wound up by it, I'm either healing finally after years of crap or I'm numbed from it.
I feel sorry for him that his hatred for me makes him such a shit parent just to spite me.
