Unpaid alimony: the new Cfa scheme
Publié le null - Directorate for Legal and Administrative Information (Prime Minister)
Are you having trouble collecting support from your ex-spouse? The FCA may act as an intermediary to ensure its payment. Two decrees published in Official Journal on 1er October 2020 specify the implementation of this financial intermediation.
Until now, this system has been extended since the 1st, and has been fixed only by decision of the Judge for Family Affairs (Jaf) in cases of domestic violenceer October 2020 to parents who are victims of unpaid debts who report it to the Caf or the Msa. It will be generalized from 1er january 2021 to all separated parents concerned by the payment of maintenance who apply for it, as soon as the maintenance is fixed or regardless of the length of time they have been separated, and even in the absence of delays or defaults in payment of pensions.
The online application is made online on the site caf.fr or that ofAgency for the Recovery and Intermediation of Maintenance Payments (Aripa).
Finally, from 2021, separated couples will benefit from enhanced support by the CFOS to carry out their procedures.
Please note
In parallel, the lone parents will be eligible for the Family Support Allowance (FSA), subject to conditions, to compensate for this loss of income. Thus, if recovery of maintenance from the payer takes time, the fund will be able to pay in the meantime a family support allowance of €116 per child to the creditor parent who lives alone.
FYI
About 30% maintenance payments are not paid or are paid in an irregular manner. The purpose of setting up this public support service is to protect single-parent families in precarious situations and to simplify the daily life of separated parents.
It was the Social Security Financing Act 2020 that introduced this mechanism allowing the payment of maintenance payments through the Family Allowance (CAF) and the Mutualité sociale agricole (Msa) funds. These funds can now collect the pension from the designated parent and then pay it each month to his or her former spouse to cover expenses related to the needs of their children.
