Synopsis

PRACTICAL GUIDE TO THE CHILD SUPPORT SCHEME The Child Support Handbook is established as the definitive comprehensive guide to the child support scheme, as it applies throughout the UK. The new edition is completely revised and updated to cover all changes to the scheme implemented during 2000. The Child Support Handbook explains clearly: who is affected, how to apply for maintenance and how to withdraw an application; how the Child Support Agency (CSA) operates; the requirement to co-operate and the right not to co-operate; how the formula for calculating payments works; exemptions and the benefit penalty; collection and enforcement; shared care, second families and competing applications; reviews, appeals and making complaints. As well as covering changes to the law and regulations, the handbook contains all new case law. There are tips on practical ways of dealing with applications and making appeals, using actual examples and case studies. The Child Support Handbook is fully indexed and cross referenced to statutes, regulations and case law, as well as to the CPAG Welfare Benefits Handbook. It is the standard guide for parents, family and matrimonial lawyers, welfare rights advisers, social workers, and advice agencies. All Citizens Advice Bureaux use this handbook when dealing with child support cases.
