What are late payment penalties?
Late payment penalties apply whenever a paying parent fails to pay their child support debt by the due date. CSA can only get rid of these penalties in certain circumstances, such as paying parents not being able to make payment due to of other expenses beyond their control. This could be for example, short term unemployment, industrial accidents, unpredictable adverse business conditions or natural disasters. If late payment penalties are applied to you, you should contact us as soon as possible to discuss your options.
