Child Maintenance

All you need to know about child maintenance

When it comes to our children, strong commitment and love isn't negotiable. Unfortunately, not all parents honour this duty, specifically their legal duty to maintain the well-being of their children. In light of this, the child maintenance system ensures that all parents honour their duty to maintain their children.

Essential facts about child maintenance

If you don’t know the whereabouts of the child's other parent, maintenance investigators can trace them and determine their financial capabilities.

Parents are required to pay maintenance until a child is self-supporting.

The court determines how much a child needs.

If maintenance isn't paid, the court can take the money from a parent’s salary, their investment account, auction their property or issue a warrant for arrest.

The maintenance amount can increase or decrease depending on financial circumstances.

Who has a duty to pay maintenance?

Parents, whether married, living together, separated, or divorced and parents of adopted children, are required to support the financial needs of their children.

The grandparents may need to pay maintenance, if the child’s parents were married.
