Lower the percentage before Child Maintenance will accept a change of income.
CMS operate a 25% rule.They will not consider a change of income unless it breaches this 25%. So if your income changes from £41000 to £31000 your payments will still be calculated on £41000 as you miss the 25% by £250. So you would continue to pay £300 a month instead of the £230 it should be.
This has happened to many parents including myself. My wage dropped by ten thousand however this was not enough as it does not breach the 25%. My payments should have dropped from £320 to £210 but they never. I totally agree with having Child Maintenance but let's at least make it fair for both parents.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. We understand you're concerned about the 25% rule but we're not sure how you'd like to change it. In particular we don't know if you'd like to remove the 25% rule altogether or to lower the percentage.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
