Failure to Declare Taxable Benefits in Kind Cases
Dear Child Maintenance Service,
Please could you provide a breakdown of the number of cases where the CMS has identified a diversion of income through the NRP failing to declare benefits in kind on their self-assessment tax returns. Please could you provide a breakdown by year. So for example:
2012: x cases
2013: x cases
2014: x cases
etc
Yours faithfully,
Mr [name removed]

Dear Child Maintenance Service,
Please pass this on to the person who conducts Freedom of Information reviews.
I am writing to request an internal review of Child Maintenance Service's handling of my FOI request 'Failure to Declare Taxable Benefits in Kind Cases'.
I find it incomprehensible that you do not hold any information in relation to my request. Are you seriously trying to say that variation requests are not recorded in a centralised system? Are you saying that within this centralised system, there is either no categorisation or description of the variation requests? If there is, then it should only take a simple database or spreadsheet query to obtain the numbers requested.
I would also suggest that it is the CMS rather than HMRC that would be responsible for answering this question as it specifically relates to the diversion of income to reduce child maintenance payments. It is the CMS that is responsible for administrating child maintenance payments, not HMRC.
As per my other FOI requests, if you continue to withhold data instead of complying with your duties under the FOIA, I will not hesitate to escalate my case to the ICO.
A full history of my FOI request and all correspondence is available on the Internet at this address: https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/f...
Yours faithfully,
Mr [name removed]
