Warning on child maintenance charge

%VIRTUAL-SkimlinksPromo%Thousands of separated parents have been sent letters by the Government warning that they will face a charge for administering maintenance payments unless they can reach an amicable agreement.

The letters are being sent to parents who have used the Child Support Agency (CSA), warning that the non-resident parent will pay a 20% fee on their payments, with the other parent losing 4% of the money received.
