Due to the demands from our friends in the CSA I am broke and with a
child on the way I will be in debt till my wife can get back to work.
Now I have the chance of second job, self employed, but everything has
to be above board (conditions of the job). Now I really don't want to
tell the CSA I have this job, as I need the money c.1000 a year to pay
my present assessment of 250. I will be re-assessed in Febuary when my
child is born, but I won't be in a position to have any accounts etc
from this new job. Now I don't want to tell the CSA about it and my ex
will never know about it, so what chance of getting away with it!

Many thanks

It's up to you, could be quite risky.

If they don't know, then they won't assess against it.  However, if they 
find out in the future that you have a 2nd income, they will backdate it as 
you should have informed them.  This will probably only happen though if 
you're either non-compliant on the current assessment or if your ex finds 
out and tells them.

Up to you.
