Liable Relative Payments
Fri 12-Jun-09 11:10 AM

Client separated from Husband - he's given her £20,000 to "get rid of her." The payment is not child maintenance - it is intended for our client.

Have researched this and, it appears that this will be classed as a liable relative payment and so will be treated as income.

Can anyone point me to anything different? Please.

Regards

Nicky
