Will PensionPlus have any impact on my payments to the Child Support Agency (CSA) / Child Maintenance and Enforcement Commission?
Child maintenance payments to the CSA / Child Maintenance and Enforcement Commission are calculated with reference to your net income i.e. your pay after the deduction of pension contributions, tax and NIC. Under PensionPlus your net income increases because you are paying less NIC and your child maintenance payments may therefore increase as a result. If you decide to participate in PensionPlus you should notify the CSA of the change in your net income. Contact details for the CSA and further details can be obtained from the CSA’s website at http://www.csa.gov.uk.
