Why CSA was formed?
If a couple going through divorce happens to have a child, it becomes important for the attorney to handle the case with a completely different frame of mind as the future and development of the child completely depends on it. To ensure that each and every child gets his rights every country has some laws that speak for the betterment of the child, so that he is not deprived of any of his rights as a child. Experts believe that both the parents share equal responsibility in the upbringing of the child, even after they have had a divorce. As after divorce both the parents do not live together, the child has to live with one of them and while the other parent is supposed to pay a fixed amount termed as alimony to support the daily needs of the child. But how much amount the non-resident parent should pay has always been a million dollar question. In order to bring solution to this problem the government has proposed Child Support Agency (CSA).
Importance of CSA in Today's Time
CSA plays an important role in determining the amount that a non-resident parent should pay as alimony. The amount should be such that the parent is comfortable paying it and is also sufficient to match the daily needs of the child. Most of the time, it has been noticed that the non-resident parent either pays too less or too much of child support. This is largely due to the negligence of their rights. This is where CSA plays an important role, it helps you what your rights are and also makes sure that you pay just the right amount in alimony, not too less and not too much. The main aim of CSA is to calculate the right amount for child support, so that the basic needs of the child like school, clothing, food and entertainment are well taken care of.
