Closed petition Include investment property mortgages when calculating child maintenance

We think mortgages on investment properties should be included as a legitimate expense when calculating child maintenance as the rental income can potentially be less than the repayment of the loan on the property since interest rates have increased significantly over the last 18 months.

More details

Child maintenance is worked out on gross income.
