Address-less cms

@prh47bridge @collaborate
Have followed your responses in previous threads

What would you suggest in this instance?

• court hearing (arranged by CMS) pulled because they couldn't confirm 'living' address
• 'living address' was established during financial investigation (by CMS after variation request) a few months back
• CMS says can't do anything until 'living' address established (despite directorships,land registry addresses etc)

Surely courts are familiar with people in permanent hiding and can put a charge on assets in the absence of confirmed address? Have there been any relevant cases? What's the procedure like? Any pointers appreciated

You say his living address was established a few months ago. If that is the case, the problem is entirely with the CMS. Keep pushing them. If they continue to do nothing, complain.

@prh47bridge they said they had all info to get court hearing, but now don't and refuse to do anything, then review in 6 months if there's any new info. Complain to CMS and ICE?
Thank you!

Yes. Go for it. The either have the information or they don't. If they don't they shouldn't have said they do. If they do they should be getting on with it.

@prh47bridge is there a timeframe applicable? The response was that the established 'living address' in December no longer applies (as of mid Feb) and since they couldn't get an earlier court hearing than March (confirmed in Jan) they had to cancel. Basically,how long is 'living address' actually stays so for legal purposes? Thanks a lot!

Not that I'm aware of. The only way I can see that an address established 2 months ago would no longer apply would be if he has moved.

Start a complaint with them I believe there is a procedure on their website

@prh47bridge that's what was implied (move) and that they haven't got a new/confirmed address to go to hearing with (and they can't use previously established one because it no longer comes up as 'living').

I would still go for lodging a complaint. They shouldn't allow someone to escape paying maintenance simply by repeatedly changing their home address.
