Child Support – Child Support Assessment Act familylaw.aylwardgame.com.au

Maintenance for children is dealt with by the Child Support Agency (‘CSA’). All applications for kid support (child maintenance) are by way of an application to the CSA. If you are not satisfied with an assessment that has been made using a formula set out in the legislation, then you may seek a review of the assessment with the CSA. If you are not satisfied with the Review Officer’s report, then you can lodge an appeal with the CSA and, if you are not satisfied with the decisions made on the appeal, you can then apply to the Family Court for a variation of the assessment that has been made.
