I got to the first ratio question and it timed me out just before I hit submit. Please feel free to be honest and tell me if that probably means to expect a rejection tomorrow!
Does anyone know what the "subsitence allowance" actually is? This would be a career change for me, at a stage in life where I haven't got a lot of bills, but I do have child support to pay and being able to ensure my kids are provided for is a huge thing. I know a lot of people will say "you should just accept it, you should make it work etc" but that isn't always practical for some!
Good luck to everyone, hopefully will get to meet/train with/work with some of you in the near future!
So regarding child Maintenance, technically you wont be under employment so the cms (if you deal through them rather than havign am external agreement) would say you pay nothing as youre not earning as such
