Child Maintenance and Consent Order

Child Maintenance and Consent Order
July 31, 2024 04:23PM
Good afternoon, It has been agreed in a consent order that neither parent will make a claim to CMS and I understand that this is binding for one year, is it correct (no time frame specified in the consent order)? .
The final order was granted a few months after the consent order approval.
I am now confused, is it one year from consent order or from final order?

I am not quite sure what the above means but I assume that the consent order was approved on one date and the decree absolute (the final order) made on another. For the purposes of the one year before you can apply to the CMS the one year runs from the date of the consent order was approved by the court.

Yes, the consent order was approved in January and then the final order was made in May.
