<p>The Service uses gross income information provided by HMRC in the first instance.
This approach is consistent for all clients regardless of their employment type and
ensures the calculation process is fair, simple and efficient.</p><p>The scheme is
designed so that liabilities remain consistent over the year, with limited changes.
The calculation is reviewed annually, and generally only changes during the year if
a parent’s income increases or decreases by at least 25 per cent.</p><p>Where the
paying parent has fluctuations in gross weekly income the Service will calculate a
liability based on the weekly average of the amounts paid over a period preceding
the effective date of the relevant calculation.</p>
