新西兰的IRD每周从母亲账户中扣除1 000美元,用于有争议的子女抚养费,这引发了对缺乏通知和公正性的反弹。
New Zealand’s IRD deducted $1,000 weekly from a mother’s account for disputed child support, sparking backlash over lack of notice and fairness.
一名新西兰母亲说,内地税收局(IRD)以没有事先通知和经济困难为由,开始每周从她的账户中扣除1 000美元,以结清她声称无效的儿童赡养债务。
A New Zealand mother says the Inland Revenue (IRD) began deducting $1,000 weekly from her account to settle a child support debt she claims is invalid, citing no prior notice and financial hardship.
这笔债务在大约十年前发生监护纠纷时,在免除处罚前增加到23 000美元,剩下16 000美元。
The debt, dating to a custody dispute about a decade ago, grew to $23,000 before penalties were waived, leaving $16,000.
她说,她告诉IRD,她不再是负有责任的父母,但并不相信她。
She says she informed IRD she was no longer the liable parent but was not believed.
自6月中旬以来,IRD报告的执行力度有所增加,发出16 500多份通知,从扣除中收取2 250万美元,估计欠税达100亿美元。
IRD reports increased enforcement since mid-June, with over 16,500 notices sent and $22.5 million collected from deductions, amid an estimated $10 billion in tax debt.
有些个人报告说没有收到任何警告,引起人们对执行儿童抚养费的透明度和公平性的关切。
Some individuals report receiving no warning, raising concerns about transparency and fairness in child support enforcement.
