child maintenance tax?

[imiami]

my friend is receiving £700/month child maintenance from her ex husband, she told me she has to pay tax on it later, I googled around, it seemed tax free?

You don’t pay tax on it at all, why on earth is she saying that

[Hellocatshome]

Child maintenance payments are tax free for the recipient. Where has she heard that she has to pay tax on it?

[imiami]

that's good news for her,
