This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament

Petition Resident parents to provide proof of receipt of payments

More details

Recipient's of Child Maintenance must be asked to provide proof that payments have not been received, as well as the payee providing proof that payments have been made directly via Standing Order.

After providing numerous statements to the CSA, along with standing order set up sheets, filtered print outs of standing order payments. The only evidence that CSA will accept that payments have been made to the recipient are statements with the reference of 'maintenance'. As it is a standing order, the payees statements do not contain the reference, whereas the recipients do. The CSA, however, refuse to request the statements of the recipient and continue to take her verbal claim as definite.

The aim of this petition is to have equal rights when challenging a CSA decision.

This petition closed early because of a General Election
