I'm wondering exactly how easy is it for a man to get away without paying child support. My xp only has to pay me $90 a month for 2 children, but lately he hasn't paid his last 2 months payments. He has recently bought himself a $30,000 car so it's not like he is in financial dire straits. Anyway the reason I'm wondering is because of other things I have read it seems as though the csa don't really do much to follow up those fathers that don't pay. Someone told me that they know someone who hasn't lodged a tax return for 10 years! And nothing has been done, so if my xp just refuses to lodge a tax return to avoid paying what happens then?

If you tell cs where your ex works they may be able to garnish his pay. Although they usually wait until he has missed quite a few payments, then it takes a few months to set up a garnish. When you call them, tell them about the car and any other large purchases, as they like to know that sort of thing.

My ex didn't pay child support for 7 years. I have NO IDEA how he got away with it. He's recently started paying, I suspect theyre now garnishing his wages? But I have no idea why it took them do long to do it.
I have little faith in the CSA, and gave up on them about 3 years in. |

Is he being paid cash in hand?
I know at my old workplace we (the employer) had to take the CS from the wages.. |

That's the thing he is very shady about saying who he works for, I thought the csa would be able to tell by going through the ato. But it doesn't seem that easy? I'm not too sure he is only 2 payments late but he is definitely the type of person who would do everything he can to not pay
Is he being paid cash in hand? I know at my old workplace we (the employer) had to take the CS from the wages.. No I don't think it is cash in hand. Otherwise it would've been very hard for him to get a car loan |

I am a payroll secretary and have had a few requests from dhs to garnish wages for child support. Im currently garnishing $198 per week from one dad who earns around $800 per week plus overtime. Not sure though why he wasnt already paying and how long it took for this to start after the case was opened?

My father managed to get away with my entire life. My mother got a back payment of about $500 when I was 18 and that was used to buy my first saddle. My brother got about that same.

Yes, the csa is the old toothless tiger. And the taxman.
They don't have much of an interest in collecting taxpayer funds or cs unless its handed to them on a plate |

That's interesting, I wonder if the father in question submitted information of his workplace or if the csa found themselves. I'm just wondering if the guy just refuses to state where they are working what happens then. Hmmm |

My ex, the father of the eldest 5, has his garnished from wages, soley because it saves him the hassle of remembering to pay it himself, and it saves me the humiliation of having to call him and ask for it. ( which I would have to be on the bones of my a*se to do so)
