The calculation represents an amount of money that is broadly similar to the amount that a paying parent would spend on the child if they were still living with them.</p><p> </p><p>Variations of a Child Maintenance calculation can be requested on grounds of unearned income; such as rental income from property or land, where the paying parent receives unearned income of at least £2,500 a year. This amount is then included in the gross income figure used to calculate the amount of maintenance owed.</p><p> </p><p>As landlords can claim tax relief for certain costs linked to their properties, the rental income used in the calculation is usually net of HMRC allowable expenses (i.e. mortgages, maintenance of the property, rent, ground rent and service charges).</p><p> </p><p>The Service runs through broad rules set out in child support legislation.
