We make sure parents who live apart from their children contribute financially to their upkeep by paying child maintenance.
Our role is to make sure that parents who live apart from their children contribute financially to their upkeep by paying child maintenance.
If a parent asks us to set up a child maintenance arrangement, we will gather information from both parents and use this to work out how much child maintenance should be paid.
We can then collect child maintenance payments from the non-resident parent, if you would like us to, and pass them on to the parent with care. If payments are not made on time, we can take action to collect the correct amount of child maintenance.
