Sorry all this is happening Kelse, and I hope that you get your IVAs seperated soon.

I have to say what a horrible man he sounds to be treating you and your children like this. A friend of mine has had a similar problem with her ex, and someone else I know had similar problems when he split with his wife and she didn't want to know their child.

Good luck with everything x

Thanks Skippy. The thing is he's gone for a contact order yet doesn't want to pay for them. He still hasn't given me a penny towards them. He's doing everything he can at the minute to get to me and to be honest he's doing a good job. I'm now 27 weeks pregnant and frankly don't want the hassle.

I will contact GT again for you early next week.

I cannot understand why his forces pensions are not taken into account for the purpose of CSA payments. This is regular income which should be used to maintaining his children. My blood is boiling this morning.

It's because war pension (or whichever one he's getting) and dla are excluded from csa calculations. Thank you Melanie.

Mine too Mel.

Kelse, he sounds like my friend's ex wife. She insistant that she saw their son but either didn't turn up or was drunk and abusive (to her ex and their son) when she did. He doesn't want to see his mum now.

You will find the strength to get through it for yourself, your children and your new baby xxx

They should be included - it is income after all and he will keep on receiving it.

You would have thought so, and I think it's disgusting that they don't class it as income.

Maybe worth a call to CAB to see what they say about it?

It's worth a try, and it certainly can't hurt.

Kelse, I don't know anything about CSA but my son pays maintenance for his twins and gives it directly to their Mother as he has been told (by his ex-partner) that any monies paid to the CSA reduces the benefit reduced paid? She isn't actually claiming benefit as such a bit of WTC but I'm not sure he's being too generous as he has the boys a lot too. x
IVA final payment left the bank on the 26th January 2013...looking forward to a debt free future.

He should pay the money via a bank account so it is all out in the open. If she is working & getting tax credits then maintenance doesn't affect this. Not sure if she isn't working but I think you are able to keep more or all of it now.
