Subject: Request for Income Variation Based on Ex-Partner's Earning Potential
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to request an income variation for my ex-partner [Ex-Partner's Name], based on his earning potential and financial capability, which do not align with his declared income. My ex-partner holds the following roles:
- Registered Mental Health Nurse
- ADHD Specialist
- Non-Medical Prescriber
From * to *, he has declared an annual income of only £*,*. This amount is significantly lower than the average salaries for the roles mentioned above. I believe this discrepancy suggests that he may have intentionally reduced his income potential or diverted income received.
I have provided evidence of the average salaries for these roles during the specified period, which reflects his true earning potential.
I kindly request that you consider this information and adjust his income assessment accordingly.
Yours faithfully,
[Your Name]

Subject: Request for Income Variation Based on Ex-Partner's Earning Potential
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing to formally request an income variation for my ex-partner [Ex-Partner's Name], based on his earning potential and financial capability, which appear to be inconsistent with his declared income. My ex-partner holds the following professional roles:
- Registered Mental Health Nurse
- ADHD Specialist
- Non-Medical Prescriber
From * to *, he has reported an annual income of only £*,*. This declared income is significantly lower than the average salaries for the aforementioned roles, which raises concerns about the accuracy of his financial disclosures. Based on my understanding, the average salaries for these positions during this period are considerably higher, which indicates that his earning potential should be much more substantial.
To support my request, I have gathered evidence of the average salaries for Registered Mental Health Nurses, ADHD Specialists, and Non-Medical Prescribers from * to *. This evidence highlights the substantial discrepancy between his declared income and his actual earning potential. As a result, I believe it is reasonable to inferthat he may have intentionally reduced his income potential or diverted a portion of the income he received. Such actions, if true, would not only be unfair but also violate the principles of equitable financial support for our child/children.
I kindly request that you review the provided evidence and consider adjusting his income assessment accordingly. A fair reassessment based on his true earning potential would ensure that our child/children receive the appropriate level of financial support necessary for their wellbeing and development.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your response.
Yours faithfully,
[Your Name]
