Will PensionSMART have any impact on my payments to the Child Support Agency (CSA)?
Child maintenance payments to the CSA are calculated with reference to your net income i.e. your pay after the deduction of pension contributions, tax and NIC. Under PensionSMART your net income increases because you are paying less NIC. There will, however, be no increase to your child maintenance payments, as the CSA will not typically change the amount of child maintenance if the change in net weekly income is less than 5%. PensionSMART net pay changes will be less than 5%. Contact details for the CSA and further details can be obtained from the CSA’s website at www.csa.gov.uk.
