Petition Action

Change the law of how child maintenance payments are calculated.

Petition Details

Change the law on how an individual persons income is used for the purpose of calculating child maintenance payments. Currently payments are calculated based on income submitted from hmrc. This figure may include benefits like company cars which in many jobs are issued as mandatory for the job.

Additional Information

I have a job which comes with a company car. I do not pay for or keep the car if I leave my job. It is provided for the purpose of my job and I cannot opt out of it. My income is actually £31,620pa but because of the company car my child maintenance payments are calculated on my income and company car combined meaning my child maintenance payments are based on an income of over £36,700pa. Also abolish the 25% tolerance rule is this not fair on many people.
