I have now been a lone parent now for 2 weeks and really need some advice.
I have applied for income support (at the mo I work weekends) which hasn't materialised yet. I was under the impression that if I applied for child maintenance I would recieve this too but have read through the leaflet I was given and it says that I only get £10 per week as the child maintenance goes towards my income suppport.
Is this right? Am I better off getting ex to pay me direct and telling CSA to forget my claim? They haven't even contacted him yet but I don't know if its too late.
Any advice appreciated
