answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 22/02/2017 answer text <p>Within the 2012 scheme of child maintenance, a broad spectrum of taxable income can be taken into account in the maintenance calculation as part of a variation.</p><p> </p><p>We believe all parents have a responsibility to financially contribute to their children’s upbringing and the best way we have of establishing a fair contribution is a calculation of their liability based on their income level.</p><p> </p><p>The definition of income within variations is designed to make the best use of additional sources of taxable income captured by self-assessment, referred to as ‘unearned income’. This includes income from property, savings and investments and other miscellaneous sources.</p><p> </p><p>Receiving ‘unearned income’ information directly from HM Revenue and Customs makes it more difficult for individuals to seek to minimise the amount of child maintenance they pay. A variation can also be considered if a receiving parent has evidence that a paying parent is diverting income.</p><p> </p><p>We have no plans to widen our variation categories further.</p> answering member constituency Romsey and Southampton North answering member printed Caroline Nokes question first answered 22/02/2017 16:42:30 answering member 4048 label Biography information for Caroline Nokes
