Hi Everyone.


I have a question regarding this and was wondering a little guidance


The ex is indicating that My daughter grade 8 trip is a section 7. I have my kids 50/50 and pay offset chid support.


Also indicating that my older ones Driving school should be the same ? as she just completed her beginners. I have no issue contributing my share to either but I really in sure if they should be the 70/30
 
How much is the trip?

Drivers lessons are normally $900. Thats a section 7 in my opinion. You could suggest the three of you split it three ways with kid kicking in a third.
 
Zanman - it can be deemed either way. Was just in court myself and ex wanted a $600.00 trip as S7. Judge indicated that given the amount of CS I pay, it was not an S7 expense. Being 50-50, I suspect your CS isn't exorbitant so it "could" be deemed as such. I do not have 50-50 access and pay significant CS ($1662.00)/mth
Unfortunately - this probably doesn't answer your question to your satisfaction.
 
In my personal opinion they should be if they cost several hundred dollars. If it is something small, I dont ask for any reimbursement for section 7, but if it is a big trip and its for school or another section 7 expense and going to cost a lot then I would think it should be considered a section 7 expense. I haven't tested those waters though.

Zanman , in your case if it wasnt a setion 7, was it then considered a shared expense at 50/50 or an unshared expense where the ex paid all of it?
 
I currently have my girls 50/50 and pay $890.00 in CS
I'm just trying to plan savings wise as my ex tries to Nickle and Dime me for everything , I have paid the 70/30 for the grade 8 trip just wasn't sure for a driving school.
 
Depending on your CS. trip is iffy.
And did she ask beforehand? But you paid. So doesn’t matter
I’d say driving school is as well
