6 Agreements
Introduction
The CSA Act provides for parties to enter into agreements which have effect under the child support legislation, known as child support (1.1.C.60) agreements. Child support agreements are an option for individuals to make their own arrangements about the amount of child support that is to be paid and how it is to be provided.
The policy outlined in this part relates to child support agreements under the CSA Act and does not relate to purely private arrangements that parties may enter into for the financial support of children.
This part outlines what child support agreements are and the applicable rules for agreements. The part also deals with rules around the administering of the child support agreement provisions by the Registrar.
