Court orders for care
Your child support assessment is generally based on the actual care you have of your child. Often, the actual care is happening in accordance with a court order that outlines the care levels. Where the actual care you have of your child is not happening in accordance with the court order you maybe able to apply to have the CSA make an interim determination of the care.
Depending upon your situation, CSA may determine that in the interim the care is to be based on the court order or in some circumstances it maybe based on a new care arrangement that is being negotiated. We have no legal ability to enforce levels of care specified in court orders.
If orders are contravened, either parent may seek legal advice, attend family dispute resolution or apply to the Family Courts.
