$4,000/month actual (ie not taxable in the recipients hands) + a house + all costs (insurance, petrol, lease) related to an SUV not more than three years old equipped with leather seats + college tuition for two children, each month from 1989 until 2007 (not the tuition in all years). The children have now grown up so it's a bit less and is now called spousal support so I get to deduct some of it from taxes.

Thats roughly £55 a week for a child, seems a bargain to me. A Labrador would cost you more.

Well said that lady.

Whilst I sypathy with those men that are 'shafted' by the exes ALL sympathy goes out the window when they complain about the money they pay for the support of their child. They had the fun of 'making' the 'little' darling so help support him\her for freaks sake.

(ABSOLUTELY no offence meant to dbd and souv)

She lives with me, and me and ex husband have a verbal agreement that i have full custody, he does not pay child support anymore and she sees him maybe once a month if he can be bothered. Is it a simple case of getting him to write a letter saying yes he allows her to move there, or do I have to go another route.
Thanks

Your situation sounds similar to ours in that when we were in England my daughters lived with me. This was an arrangement between my ex-wife and myself and did not involve a custody order. During the application process to Canada my ex-wife had to sign a letter that was notarised by a solicitor to say that she gave her permission for my 17 and 14 year old daughters to make the move. It wasn't required for my 18 year old.

Cheers Scott the sucker :o :eek: :(

How about 480 pounds a month for one kid - yep my hubby got royally screwed - that's what you get for using a pregnant divorce lawyer I suppose - luckily his ex wife has agreed to smaller payments so it's not quite so painful anymore - probably 'cause she got a new husband and they both work full time and had we gone through CSA his payments would have been a mere 250ish a month.

Thanks, Sounds like I have to arrange something then, I dont think i will have a problem with it ( fingers crossed) so will find out how much this is going to cost me for the notarised letter, may be best to try and get it before I send off the application
Thanks again stepneck

I can't remember how much it cost to do this. I remember arranging it ahead of time and turning up at the solicitors office with my ex-wife. The solicitor made it clear to me that she was now representing my ex and took her into a private room to get assurance that her arm wasn't being twisted in any way. Once she was satisfied the letter was notarised but I left there feeling quite the bad person.
