csa
I live 250 miles away from my children. Even though I have a court order my ex has refused me access. I submitted a C1 application to the court and regular fortnightly contact dates have now been set. This is to be reviewed again at the end of November to make sure my ex is actually allowing contact.
Child support has always been paid through the CSA. Never missed a payment or complained about it. However, this morning I received a new assessment from them. This has increased by 135% on the original assessment. I received no forms to complete and this was the first I knew of a revised assessment. None of my living costs (mortgage) or travel expenses to see my children have been taken into account . After speaking to the CSA I have now faxed over the documentation that they have requested.
I have also been told though that the increased payments will still be taken from my account until the case has been reviewed, which could take 8 weeks. I've also been told that this will be backdated to April leaving me owing thousands of pounds!
If these increased payments leave my account it will make it impossible for me to travel to see my children, therefore breaking the contact order.
I'm at my wits end! I really don't know what to do anymore.
Has anyone got any good advice?
