Post-Secondary Expenses

I'd let her do all the calculations and then wait for the cheque - use for getaway in the Fall?

She wont ever calculate that. She will find some way to say he owes her money. Then it will be a cycle of him doing the calculations properly to send, her dispute, his dispute lather rinse repeat.

Its like she just has to continue to engage. No matter what he sends she doesnt agree but when he needs info she ignores him. Hes still waiting on a receipt for an expense she claimed in 2014. Is she going to send it or sit and try to calculate the child support from 2012 to now?

They had a written agreement that they followed and she
Decided she wanted to go off the guidelines instead and now wants to go back 5 years.

Blink, I mentioned this point to my partner and he agreed. Was also frustrated that her refusal to follow the guidelines a couple of years ago also resulted in her telling the kids he didnt pay child support. His response back included pointing out her flip flopping and also the item in the "how to calculate your income" that states if 150 isnt the right amount you should use paystubs or a letter from your employer which he provided. So far no response. Not sure what shes up to.

Youre missing what I said. His ex wanted him to follow the agreement and didnt like it five years ago when cs went down and she knew he was making more money. Then he confirmed their agreement was wrong and he sent the proper cs amount and arrears for what he should have been paying. She didnt like that. She sent everything to FRO and didnt inform them when kids status changed. She was collecting more money than was owed. Now she wants to follow csg rather than agreement and figures theres missing money somewhere. There was--to my partner. She cant calculate anything to save her life and keeps losing emails and files and wants him to jump through hoops to keep her information organized. Hes sent her everything he needs to send her, she cant figure out the paperwork and wants to take whatever the highest amount is at all points in time to calculate cs and school expenses. Two years ago she wanted to use income amounts from two years before to calculate that year of expenses.

I should also mention that she has money sitting at FRO to be recovered and hes told her three times its there and he will agree to release it but now shes chasing her tail on income information he sent four years ago.

Be very careful with his advice. He presents himself as knowledgeable but is very inconsistent with what he suggests to posters.

For example, he mocked me for months for not getting an emergency motion right away when there were no concerns from CAS, police etc. He then advised another poster to not go for an emergency motion due (denial of access and a self-reported unstable and historically suicidal parent) because there were no CAS concerns. I just pray children don't get hurt from this man/woman's poor advice.

Actually cs is supposed to be based on your current income. You prove that income through various means. For instance, his taxes/noa RIGHT NOW show half his actual current income. He is currently paying cs based on his actual current income. You cant pick and choose the highest amounts on paper to determine cs amounts. Just like when you get a raise you update, you lower if your income goes down. Hes done all of that--up or down immediately as his income changed.

Theres a clause in their agreement that cs is not payable while kid is away AND hes paying living expenses that total his cs for her at home. The reason why his lawyer said is because his ex makes double what he makes. Why would he pay more for her monthly when kid isnt at home? That would be an argument that its cheaper to take the school program at home.

He pays full table the months kid is home. Averaged out over the year thats what is normally ordered.
