Hi, everyone.
My name is Paul.
My 2 children have lived with me since the 30th June this year. We have had a social worker to help mediate between me and my ex wife who is very hard to communicate with and I have now been told to not even look at the abusive emails anymore. My daughter is 17 my son 15. I’m in process of 2 claims 1 to child benefit and the other is csa both still ongoing all new to my as I have been the paying parent for the last 12 years. I recently had a message from csa stating I have missed payments. I actually paid her for July. And we have always had a mutual agreement and payment has been the same almost all the way through the years I can’t understand why they would even open up a case I have sent proof in from social worker when I received them and a letter from child benefit as proof of my claim can anyone help thanks
hi,
if you don't have a court that states who children live with, then it will be difficult dealing with CMS. you would have to wait to successfully claim child benefit. then you send CMS a letter as proof.
you could try making complaint. email your MP and ask them to raise complaint with CMS, can also CC in complaintsreviewteam@dwp.gov.uk
and
correspondence@dwp.gov.uk
Thanks, cms are very slow at dealing with things my claim will be accepted or denied September 6th but my ex phones up and I have until 22nd of august just don’t see how she can make a claim when they have proof that I have had them from the 30th June ?
@aj1975 you can call them on Monday and ask to speak to case worker, and can they freeze your case while they investigate.
Thanks.
I will be as soon as they open👍
