Child maintenance should be work out for the paying parent from there NET pay NOT from there GROSS pay as the working parent does not even see nor take home in the bank the GROSS pay so they are getting penalized twice from the tax man and Child maintenance

Additional Information

Example: - Parent on £36,000 per year GROSS pay.
Actual take home pay £24,000 per year NET pay.
Child maintenance work out your weekly pay from £36,000 this would be £692.00 per week in pay. When actually your weekly take home pay is £461.00
