Hang on there
I for one am a single father bringing up my 11 and 7 year old. I don't get jack **** from my ex wife she earns over double of what I earn.
So all of you feminist Band waggon jumpers just remember it is supposed to be both ways around here. Plenty of Dads struggling to make ends meet!!! |

CSA payments depend on which rules the assessment was worked on
Old Rules: don't even try to work out! The calculation was so hard even CSA couldn't get it right
New Rules: 1 child 15% of income. 2 children 20% of income, 3 or more children 25% of income, after allowable expenses.
Doesn't matter if the new partner works or is a millionaire unless they adopt them he doesn't have to pay anything towards their up keep |

if he doesn't work you'll be lucky to get 50p!
My ex pays £2.50 a mth for 3 and he'll never get a job coz he pleads disability. |

As little as they can get away with.
The one n only - i am not referring just to men, the CSA are a crock of ****, absent parents either get away with paying nothing or are made to pay well over the odds |

is the women with the partner of whom she wants money from? or do you mean you want money from csa but you have a new boyfriend but he doesn't work? I presume its the last one - it doesn't matter if your partner is working that has nothing to do with how much the child's father pays, if the child's father is working it is 25% of his wages but if the mother isnt working and on income support you dont get that amount you get £5 onto your benefits - thats if the CSA have sorted it out - dont expect to get anything as the CSA are closing down soon and the new cases will be kept aside. |

Give up now - the CSA is unorganised and can't get money from anyone.
It's supposed to be a certain % of their income depending on individual circumstances. |

the minimums 10% of his earnings,when i was unemployed they took £5 of me dole a week ,so this is correct..as for tracey k receiving 2.50 a month thats just f-in ridiculous,i give my ex 40 a week an my wage isnt great,but us blokes need some rights as ,she does hairdessing from home and at times earns more then me,tax free,free roof over her head,dole ,and a cushdy saturday cash in hand job,so is this fair. |

it should be 15%. but i think it will depend on the situation they are in, if they are in a lot of debt, or circumstances are that he does not earn much money, they would have to give less i think. |

£5 is week is the minimum payment from the man.
Most of them get away with paying nothing at all though. |

I'm not sure. I believe if its all means-tested i.e. it depends on how much the biological father earns. It doesn't matter if the woman is with a partner or no - the committment and the responsibility to provide for the children doesn't end for a father just because his former partner now has a new woman in his life. |

it will depend on the mans income and also wether they have any other dependants. eg. new wife, other kids.
i dont quite understand the second part but if you are living with a man, you dont claim child support from him.
if a man is unemployed he will not have to pay child support (except possibly if he has a lot of money in the bank-im not sure about that) |
