Is it right that the people I have my IVA with can count my child maintenance received for my daughter as income, surely this cannot be true? My IVA payment has more than doubled as my ex is paying more child maintenance.
It is counted as income but can also be offset against expenses for the children. You need to speak to your IP company and explain things to them.

The greatness of a man is not in how much wealth he acquires, but in his integrity and his ability to affect those around him positively.

All income is counted, including maintenance and benefits.
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.
