Child maintenance collect and pay - do you get your payments on the same day every month?

Recently I have changed to collect and pay as my ex stopped paying. A deo was setup and I got my first collect and pay payment last month. Was checking this months payment online and is showing as “payment missed”. Last month on the 23rd was already showing as payment received and then I received the payment 2 days later. I’m wondering whether the payment is late or if the payment was actually not received at all. Anyone here on collect and pay (ideally a deo)? Do you get your child maintenance payments on the same day every month? Or every month is a different day? Does anyone know how long it takes until a payment is really considered as “missed payment” and cms takes action? Thank you

It should be the same date every month other wise your payments would be all over the place. I would call CMS and check.

Yes however he hasn't paid it in 6 months but yes it's suppose to be the same day every month.
