I find Child maintenance is solely unfair for good fathers who try to progress there career but be punished my child maintenance. I have my kids every other week and 5 weeks a year and a very good dad. I took a new job to better myself but was gobsmacked i have to pay £100 a month extra in CMS.

Additional Information

I went from earning £25500 to £32000 and my payments went up £100 a month. I took this new job to have the ability to do more with my kids as my time is so precious but now what I earn extra i have to give out in tax & child maintenance. How is this fair!.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to ask the UK Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you feel the current system of child maintenance is unfair on non-resident parents. However, we are not sure how you would like it changed.

You could start a new petition setting out clearly what change you would like to see.
