Divorce / Spousal Maintenance

7,072 or 43,072 if the PWC requests dividends to be taken into account.

Good. That is f*** all. 20% (£717) for 2 kids is nothing. Seems most PWC's would be better off accepting the generosity of the NRP here if they are a contractor.

Though if an NRP has assets in excess of 65k (excluding prime residence) then the PWC can request a variation and they can (potentially) translate these assets into an additional assessment through the variation.

bad. Though at 8% not such a big deal... unless you've got shed loads of cash sitting in LTD company and the CSA decide to use that as an asset. if not. again the PWC would be better off being nice to the NRP contractor.

Hi Jerry,

I realise this is late but I'm in a similar position and was interested to know how it worked out for you. Any advice would be very gratefully recieved.

Thanks.

Ok I'll try to help a little.

I had no problems with the CSA, I was honest in answering their questions but didn't volunteer any extra. When they asked for proof of earnings I just gave them the last directors statement which contained the last two years records and they went from there, no poking around in my books or any of that malarky.

That was over 14 years ago and now it's over, and I can hold my head up high that I supported my kids throughout. Secret is not to get bitter about what exactly gets spent on who, just box it off, as far as you're concerned you're paying for the kids fullstop. Another thing, get a clean break no matter what you may have to give up, think long term and keep it business like.

Oh another thing, don't do the DD thing, send a cheque or bank transfer in exes account, they will argue you can't but I told them I get paid ad hoc and that sometimes the money may not be there.

Good Luck
