My new partner has children from a previous relationship.?

Question

My new partner has children from a prev relationship. The father dont work (Lazy ***). Can she claim Via CSA?

Although he doesnt earn £$£$£$£

Answer 1

Yes, they will take a minimum amount per child from his JSA. But keep on their backs cos it doesnt always follow that it will be given to her. Ive heard of cases like that.

Answer 2

Yes she can if he claims benefits they will deduct the money from the benefits he gets and if he gets a job they will probably automatically deduct a percentage from his wages. Well in theory anywayto be honest the CSA are on the whole pretty much useless they couldnt organise a p*ss up in a brewery for want of a better expression, my partner paid over £1000 to the CSA to give to his ex and they gave it to someone else instead she was going mad saying he hadn't been paying it and he had it took them forever to sort it out.

Answer 3

She'd better make a claim quick. Whether she gets any child support from him or not is almost besides the point -- it's not fair she should have to pay every penny to feed, house and clothe What He Created, so the more noise she starts making sooner, the better.

Just make sure you stand out of the way. On one hand, the kids' expenses are nothing to do with you, but on the other hand the father won't want to think his ex's new fella is somehow benefiting from his contributions.

Answer 4

she will have a long wait for any money she could put in a claim doubt she'll get much though, if it were me i wouldn't bother cause I'm too head strong and wouldn't claim as later on in life i could say i owe nobody nothing and I've brought these kids up myself csa wont be back in business 2013 once they sort out all their mess they cause nothing but trouble have been involved with them i the past via a partner

Answer 5

That looks very unfair. i'm able to understand your inlaw's factor to 3 degree, yet they're infants for goodness-sakes! have you ever tried conversing on your better half's kin approximately how this makes the different infants experience and how it outcomes the relationship your infants have with one yet another? possibly they'd purchase one great present that each and each of the youngsters would desire to savour, like a swing set, a video pastime equipment, or a ping pong table or some thing. I say that in the event that they're unreceptive to the two placed up the grants lower back such as you reported, or purchase extra grants and pretend they're from those kin. this is a hard difficulty, stable success!

Answer 6

No - you can't take money that he doesn't have. However he will tot up a debt to her which she maybe able to claim back when he does get a job. That is if he gets a job. There are rumours that this will change and regardless of whether a father (or mother) has a job a portion of the dole money would go to contributing a child.

Answer 7

yes she can claim but the amount she'll get depends on the father's situation and how many children are involved..from my experience the father of my daughter is 18 and claiming jsa but because he is paying for another child i am (supposed) to be getting £2.50 a week which is took straight from his benefits but considering it took them nearly a year to sort out it really isnt worth the hassle in the end.

Answer 8

She can still claim but if he only receives benefits she'll be lucky to get about £5 a week. If he works she'll get 15% of his take home pay. Good luck

Answer 9

Yes I think so but obviously if he doesn't work the amount she can claim is limited. She may be entitled to other benefits though so it is worth investigating.

Answer 10

I would stay out of her businesss with the Ex. If you can't offer anyting to her kids, stop dating her.
