Maintenance and property arrangements

What should I do if the payer has insufficient income or is unable to pay maintenance?

You may first seek family mediation services to discuss and agree for varying the maintenance, and apply to the court for a variation order on the terms of the agreement. If the parties cannot reach an agreement, you may consider filing an application to the court, but the payer must provide sufficient justification, as in the case of the previous paragraph.
