Home » » Maintenance-Children

If parents own a home,and have paid off the mortgage,does this affect the level of child maintenance set?

Yes, as long as the children live in the family home, there will clearly be no need to set maintenance for renting a property for them to live in, within the amount set for “accommodation” ,as bare shelter will be provided. However, the parent who is obliged to pay child maintenance will still have to bear a relative portion of other accommodation costs such as municapility taxes, house committee dues, electricity,gas, telephone/internet etc.
