Hi All,
I've just seen that my travel expenses (trains, buses) can be added to the CMS calculation. Does anyone know how that works? I assume they don't just take the total travel costs for a month off the monthly payment, and it's some sort of percentage..?
Does anyone know how it works?
Hi,
If its travel to pick up kids and drop kids, then they can take fuel/travel costs into account if its £10 a week and above.
They will reduce your gross income by deducting the expenses, and then recalculate your payments.

That's good to know, thanks. The large costs are every two weeks, but they work out as more than £10 per week for sure.
