Hi
I know of a situation where a woman was/is claiming for one parent family but not declaring any money she was getting from the father of the child even though he was paying her in cash for years, the father then decided he wanted proof he was paying his share in case things ever got difficult(they were never together as a couple) and set up a bank acc for the child in the childs name and is paying in a sum of maintenance weekly which the mother can access when she wants. Would social welfare be aware of this? and would she get in trouble if they were to become aware of it? the child is 13 now.
