Do you pay privately or via the CSA? has the CSA made an assessment?

I would imagine you would still have to pay maintenance as you are Ryan's father ~ the CSA website has a maintenance calculator for you to estimate the proper amount to pay. The fact that you have a new family will be taken into consideration.

Out of interest, did you give your consent for your sons name to be changed?
