Hidden earnings

My wonderful stbx is working for his new partner as her groom. Therefore he has no earnings! The way it works is she is then able to train more pupils and have more schooling liveries and therefore her income goes up and he is paid in kind(!!)
So where does this leave me with child support.

I can estimate what it would cost to pay someone to do what he does - but is that taken into account?

Also any advice on how soon to involve the CSA? Wondered given how nasty he can get whether to wait until after the divorce is finalised!

Taylr chic how low will they stoop?? As for csa my soladvised me to involve them and i have, he only gives me 1k for me and 2 kids and hes in FMH..earning shed loads i may add
just look out for you and kids and hope that one of her horses boots him where it matters!!
looby

Hi,

Just a thought Taylr!
I wonder what the stbx' new partner declares as legitimate business costs, eg employees wages, when she fills out her tax assessment.

Would the CSA be able to access this info?, seeing as the CSA and HM Revenue and Customs all part of same Government Dept.

I always believe 'what goes around comes around' so keep positive for you and your children.

Good point - but doubt she declares him! I know as a fact she gets paid cash as often as pos and puts as little through the books as possible.
