Summary: In vitro fertilization is an extremely successful way for infertile patients having children. It can be combined with other medical procedures. It offers a high chance of success and allows everyone – no matter what their problem - to become parents.
The term 'in-vitro' literally means 'in glass'. This is to signify the glass tubes in which the washed sperms and the eggs are fertilized, to then be transferred into a woman's uterus. It is owing to this nomenclature that for a long time the babies conceived through this procedure were called test tube babies. However, over the years, the world has become more sensitive to the plight of couples who have struggled to have children of their own, and this insensitive term is no longer in use.
In vitro fertilization has a lot of benefits and though the most important part of the procedure is performed outside the body, the baby grows inside the human womb and is delivered like any normal baby.
For success, the IVF procedure requires three below things – that can carry the embryo to term.
With in vitro fertilization, anyone can have a baby – even if the parents cannot provide any of these three basic elements! It makes it possible for anyone – regardless of their health and sexual orientation, to have babies. This is the best and most successful way to become a parent. It also addresses the issues of infertility, even when this is unexplained. Women who have damaged Fallopian tubes or other infertility issues and men, who have unhealthy or insufficient sperms, also have an excellent chance of having children through this technique.
When used in combination with other techniques, such as intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), men and women with all kinds of infertility issues have been able to have children. Even when men are not able to ejaculate normally, testicular sperm aspiration and similar techniques may be used to extract their sperm for the procedure.
Most couples choose in vitro fertilization because it helps them conceive quickly and successfully. When using this procedure, couples can also opt for Pre-implantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD) , which can help eliminate chromosomal deficiencies in the embryo to have a healthy baby who is free of chromosomal defects. It also helps couples have babies when they want to without wasting time – "instant gratification"! They no longer have to try for many years before being able to have a child.
Since the procedure is performed in-vitro, even frozen eggs and sperm can be used. This gives couples the option to store their eggs and sperms to be used in the future. It can make pregnancy possible, even after a woman has achieved menopause. With IVF, even gestational surrogates can be used. This provides parents the option to allow someone else carry the pregnancy for them, in case the uterus is not healthy enough to carry a pregnancy to term.
Clinics such as Malpani Infertility Clinic at that offer you all the options for improved chances of fertilization and conception, should be your first choice when considering the procedure for having a child.

When so much contemporary art is overwrought or under-thought -- shamelessly confusing irony with meaning and quality, and delivering the equivalent of self-conscious one-liners -- the black-and-white photographs of German artist Jochen Lempert arrive like aspirin for a chronic headache. They relieve the pressure and allow one to see, and contemplate, again.
Lempert largely photographs the natural world: ocean waves, plants, birds, insects, reptiles, seashells and taxidermied specimens. He has amassed a huge photo archive that visually undergirds such abstract concepts as motion and time, photosynthesis, and human and animal typologies, where he establishes a conversation of formal associations. Notions of order and randomness permeate his images.
That the riches of Lempert's vision are on view both at Midway Contemporary Art in Minneapolis and the Rochester Art Center is a treat. Traveling to Minnesota, the Hamburg-based artist brought a small crate of prints and curated each show on the spot, swapping out images and creating new combinations.
Before beginning his work as a photographer in the mid 1990s, Lempert spent a decade as a filmmaker with the German collective Schmelzdahin ("melt away") while also studying entomology in Bonn. That film experience is reflected in his photos, which frequently employ a serial format.
In "Un Voyage en Mer Du Nord," a row of six photographs taken on a North Sea voyage depict the movement and time of breaking waves. In "Continental Drift," six images depict an Italian volcano erupting. "Oiseaux-Vögel" consists of a grid of 12 images of birds. "The Skins of Alca impennis" features 43 images of the taxidermied heads and necks of the extinct bird, which Lempert photographed in natural history museums across Europe.
There are also images of pigeons, rain, leaves, donkeys, tiny seashells, water bugs and flying ants copulating in the sky. Humans enter the picture frame, too, in his series "Symmetrie & Körperbau (Symmetry & Architecture of the Body)." In a pair of images subtitled "tattoo, fish" the arm of a young tattooed girl is compared with a fish with an odd appendage.
Lempert also explores nontraditional printing techniques such as photograms, where he places natural specimens directly on photographic paper, then exposes them to light -- a technique used by Man Ray and other early-20th-century photographers. In "Four Frogs," a 16-image series, he placed four tiny frogs on each sheet of paper, creating a random black and white pattern.
To make his foliograms, Lempert places an actual specimen in his enlarger's film-negative carrier, then projects light through them onto the photo paper below. "Transmission 1-6" shows the distinctive vein patterns of six different leaves at a very large scale.
Humor permeates many of the images. In "Zur Photosynthese (On Photosynthesis)" a flurry of leaves seem to be suspended beneath an overhanging branch like a whirling dervish. It is all the result of a leaf blower.
A palpable casualness belies the specificity of the content and process of Lempert's images, which range from relatively small to large (40 1/2 by 30 inches). He uses a 35-millimeter camera and hand-prints on unpressed, heavy silver gelatin paper, giving his images a feel that provokes an involuntary yearning for the pre-digital era. Adding to their immediacy, the work is unframed and attached simply to the wall, a no-nonsense presentation.
Understated and uncommonly beautiful, Lempert's photographs are in distinct contrast to the work of the German Becher School photographers such as Andreas Gursky, Thomas Ruff and Thomas Struth whose large-scale, digital portraits or images of crowds of people in public spaces are often manipulated into a hyper-real state.
The simplicity of this work is provocative. In a sense, it is a visual counterpart to the "slow food" movement -- a reaction to the excesses of the contemporary art world. These smart, quiet images get directly to the heart of things.

Mum is slammed as a 'thief' after revealing she kept a ball pit Amazon sent her by mistake… but is she really in the wrong?
The mum ordered a baby gate and cutlery from the online retailer but was sent a ball pit and a pack of 100 balls instead
A MUM has been labelled a "thief" after revealing that she kept a ball pit Amazon sent her by mistake.
Taking to Mumsnet, the mum said she ordered a baby gate and cutlery from the online retailer but was sent a ball pit and a pack of 100 balls instead.
She wrote: "The ball pit and balls are exactly the same as what we ordered and received some eight months ago!
"I've just had an email to say that the baby gate I ordered has been dispatched, no mention of the ball pit they've accidentally sent me.
"AIBU [am I being unreasonable] to keep the ball pit and say nothing? Would you keep it or return it?"
She later revealed that she was going to keep the ball pit - and maybe "give it to a neighbour".
Needless to say, numerous mums were quick to respond to the woman – with many insisting that keeping the ball pit would be "stealing".
One user wrote: "I'd return it because I'm not a thief."
Another added: "It's pretty wrong to just keep something that isn't yours."
Someone else agreed: "Sounds like stealing to me!"
Others thought she might as well call up the company and tell them – as they would likely tell her to keep it anyway.
One such user added: "I would ring them, they may tell you to keep it anyway! Amazon often do."
Another agreed: "Yep, ring them. Explain it is difficult for you to return it so they need to collect as it is their mistake. I reckon you've got a 50/50 chance of them just telling you to keep it."
IN A TIGHT SPOTQVC presenter is left red-faced while modelling a pair of khaki trousers that fitted her a bit too snuggly
Meanwhile some told the woman to check that she hadn't been charged for the item.
One said: "Ask them in case they charge you for it. They are not going to ask for it back."
What do you think?
Previously, a Mumsnet user revealed she had fallen out with her husband because he voted for the Conservatives in the General Election.
And another woman prompted a fierce debate online after admitting she pulls her bra up over her bum to get it on each morning.

Amelia felt confused for just a few seconds. The confusion led to fear, fear to sadness.
She was sad about the possibility of a past event. An event that might had happened without her knowing until now. But if it did happen … decisions should have been different. Maybe the pain would have been reduced. Is it possible that she made such a big mistake as a consequence of ignorance? The hint was the purple feather that was left at her front door by … By who? –she wondered.
Ghost at the door
Forgotten feelings
A purple feather flies away
Did it happen?

Conscious Education
Educating consciously is a daily practice and commitment that involves learning to understand, in the broadest possible way, what´s going on. This commitment takes us to contact deeply with the here and now, with what one is, feels and perceipts. This process makes necessary take the attention toward the outsie ( what the student thinks or dos, but also what he feels or needs) and towards the inside ( What I do, think, feel and need) That´s the key.
If we educate consciously, we connect with the feeling and needs behind each being, that the way by which we´ll realise why each students behaves in a different way. In Mandala International Academy, we know that consciousness can be incorporated into every aspect of the being, in a natural and organic way. Our classrooms are not the exception and these values are practised every day
Academic Program
Member of the IEYC
Mandala International Academy is member of the IEYC programme (Internationa Early Years Cirriculum) and because of that, uses the best international practises, holistic investigation and approaches based on games that cover all the areas within the preschool learning, including the personal, social and emotional development.
The 8 fundamental Values of the Mandala Studies Program
The Mandala Academic Program is designed around eight principles of learning aligned with the IEYC International Certification, which we consider essential for the development of the children in the pre-school stage.
- The first years of life are important in their own right.
- Children must be supported to learn and develop at their own and unique rhythm.
- Play is an essential aspect of the learning and development of all children.
- Learning occurs when the appropriate experiences for the child, developed by the teachers and those initiated by the children take advantage of their natural curiosity in an appropriate environment that motivates them to investigate and inquire.
- Independent and interdependent learning experiences create a context for personal development and are the basis of the international mentality.
- Knowledge and development of skills lead to a growing sense of understanding when the children are given opportunities to explore and express their ideas in multiple ways.
- Continuous evaluation, in the form of evaluation and reflection, is effective when it involves a learning link with the home.
- Learning must be motivating, attractive and fun, opening a world of wonders for children where personal interests can flourish.

Rowland's work situates this identity formation within the structures of settler colonialism, in particular the logic of elimination, and examines how the official means by which it takes place effects a "biogenic extension of frontier homicide." He also examines how self-determined and decolonial notions of identity within contemporary Indigenous community both mesh with and exist beyond official categorization, as well as the processes of new Indigenous identity formation, in particular within the urban setting.

Celtic wonderkid Dembele to make senior debut at 16 on title presentation day at Parkhead
Karamoko Dembele has been making headlines since the age of 13 and may be about to make more as a 16-year-old on the brink of a senior debut at Celtic.
The youngster first registered on the radar of those outside of Glasgow when handed a bow at U20 level when seven years younger than those who regularly grace such a stage.
Since then, much interest has been shown in a teenage talent who has graced youth internationals with England and Scotland.
He is being tipped to reach the very top of the game, but those at Parkhead are aware of the need to manage his development carefully and avoid taking any unnecessary risks with a player they have tied to professional terms.
Dembele is not the first exciting prospect to be given a big billing and many before him have struggled to deliver on expectation.
Celtic, though, believe that they have a potential superstar on their books and Neil Lennon is ready to offer him a first-team outing in a final day showdown against Hearts on Sunday.
The Hoops boss told reporters ahead of an outing on home soil that will see the Scottish Premiership champions take in a title presentation: "Karamoko Dembele is a possibility for Sunday. He's training with the squad this week, as is Ewan Henderson.
"We've got boys that are carrying knocks and we don't feel the need to risk them ahead of the cup final.
"Kieran Tierney and James Forrest won't be involved at the weekend but both should be fit for the cup final."
Celtic, who are chasing down another domestic treble, are set to face Hearts again in the Scottish Cup final on May 25.
The hope is that more silverware will be secured at Hampden Park, but for now, Lennon and his side are determined to make the most of their title-winning triumph.
He added: "It's always a very special occasion and great atmosphere.
"Ultimately, it's about Scott Brown picking up the trophy and standing alongside a podium full of players. We've done it eight times in a row, which is very difficult to do."

Do you know how may new businesses open up each month in the state of Georgia? How about in your county? In your city? How many of them will be vying for the same clients you are? Would this be valuable information? I am certain it is.
You need to know this information like you know those who are closest to you. This is how you determine where you can open your business, what your niche, or specialty might be, how much to charge, how many people who could or would potentially use your services are in the area, etc.
This research is called a feasibility study. Do a lot of new businesses do this? A lot of them don't. Should you? Absolutely. This would be no different than planning for a child. Another way to say it is that the benefits far outweigh the costs.
A feasibility study is a logical process used to evaluate a business idea by looking at the proposed business from different angles, including:
• Market Viability
• Technical Viability
• Business Model Viability
• Management Model Viability
• Economic and Financial Model Viability
• Exit Strategy Viability
The ultimate goal of the study is to determine the level of risk associated with proceeding with starting a particular venture. It simply answers the question, "Is this venture feasible?" A feasible business venture is one that will generate enough revenue and profit to sustain itself for a foreseeable amount of time. Additionally, the organization should be able to withstand economic and organization risks and remain viable long enough to accomplish the organization's vision.
A healthy amount of data will need to be gathered (versus a "gut feeling" or instinct methodology); the study will examine three main areas:
• Legal issues – what legal implications exist
• Technical & organizational requirements – What resources are required for the organization to be functional
• Financial overview – can the organization attract required investors or raise seed capital to start the organization? Can the organization be fiscally sound in the market it serves?
Results of the study should include recommendations and limitations, along with supporting evidence for the recommendations. If the results of the feasibility study are favorable, the business plan will be the next logical step in the process. However, if the results of the study are not appealing, the project may be re-engineered or the project will be scrapped.
Information sources for the data include BizMiner, Nolo (legal documents and forms), Findlaw.com (Legal information) and other information sources. While templates for feasibility studies (individually) are probably difficult to find, some business planning templates include some level of feasibility study in them. For a more directed approach, I suggest you work with a qualified consultant, such as those at Aepiphanni Business Solutions.
Rick Meekins is the Managing Consultant at Aepiphanni, a Business Consultancy that provides Management Consulting, Managed, and Implementation Services to business leaders and entrepreneurs seeking to improve or expand operations. We are the trusted advisor to those seeking forward-thinking operational and strategic solutions to help them plan for and navigate through the challenges of business growth.

PebbleCreek Quilters
Quilt Documentation Papers
(This is not an appraisal)
Why not document your quilt/s for future generations to enjoy and to share the history of your quilt/s with others?
You can do that by having your quilt/s documented by some fellow quilters in the club.
Documentation days will be planned according to the calendar at least once a month. Each lady will be assigned a time slot for her quilt/s.
This will be an ongoing project, so there will be opportunities in the future to bring in more quilts.
Please print out all of the forms needed to document you quilt. They are as follows:
Ownership Information: This is a three (3) page form that you as the owner of the quilt are requested to complete. Only you know the information requested and if you have purchased the quilt or inherited it and do not know the provenance, please indicate with "unknown" for questions 3 thru 10. As the owner you will be able to complete questions 1 and 2 and, if there are problems,the documentors will be able to help.
Quilt Documentation Form: This is a seven (7) page form and you are requested to complete as many of the questions as possible, but it will be gone over by the documentors to make sure the answers are correct and interpreted correctly. Question 8 applies only to antique quilts. Question 13 applies to any inscriptions that are on the top of the quilt, whereas question 31.10 applies to the label on the back of the quilt. Do not worry about the answers as the documentors have the training to make sure everything is correct.
Release Form: This must be completed and signed as this is necessary for your quilt to be entered into the National Quilt Index.
Please click on HERE below to print the forms required.

Guy G. Roche Sr. at 2015 Huntsman Gala
Guy G. Roche Sr. – Committee Chairman
Guy spent 43 years with Instrumentation and Control Groups at Texaco, Goodyear Chemicals, The Foxboro Co. and Compressor Controls Corp. His last 17 years at CCC included many assignments.
Training and customer support for Sales and Application Engineers; conducting seminars worldwide attended by engineers and technicians from OEM's and Major Energy Sector Companies.
He was the project manager at CCC for developing "pre-engineered" products and sales distribution channels needed to gain market share for these new products. As a member of the American Petroleum Institute and International Standards Organization, Guy worked with this select committee in writing new standards for special purpose steam turbine design and control systems.
His wife Josie, was first diagnosed with breast cancer in June, 1994. Fourteen years later, it was discovered that the cancer had metastasized to her liver. Guy immediately resigned his position and they relocated to Spanish Fork, Utah. They were never separated during those last six years.
By some miracle, Josie was able to start treatment immediately at Huntsman Cancer Institute where she first met Dr. Saundra S. Buys and her staff. After a short time, she began to refer to them as her "Angel Flight". There were months and months of chemotherapy lasting two years and then additional drugs to try and provide an improved "Quality of Life". This treatment regimen provided an additional four years for them to share. Several extended international vacations, with the blessing of her Doctor, provided time to reflect on and too prepare for future battles.
Josie did win many battles but from the start knew that she would eventually lose the war. This didn't seem to faze her. In the last months her target was October 30, 2014 to celebrate their 50th anniversary. Her optimism almost carried her there only to have her liver become the final roadblock. Her humor and spirit could not be broken by her disease. She even told Guy "that after her passing, he could pitch a pup tent at the golf course if he wanted to".
Guy has begun a new journey by dedicating his life in support of projects which benefit cancer research hoping that one day others will not have to endure such trials. You can join him in this journey by supporting cancer research at HCI. As a team we can help defeat this heinous disease.

After Anna passed on 22 May, we didn't expect to be able even to think about another dog until next year. Then on 11 July, along came Elsa, a Canine Companions for Independence release dog, 21 months old and in need of a home. Every dog has its own personality, no two alike, but judging by our experiences with three dogs so far, the difference between them and people is that all canine personalities are winners! Raised by a prisoner, sent from there to CCI Oceanside for months of specialty training, having been recommended for a "career change" because she would rather cuddle than work, Elsa finds everything about her first home surprising and fascinating, most especially mirrors, when she tries to give her toy to the "other" dog.

Hello Friends! Last week I was super busy helping my daughter's girl scout troop prepare for thinking day. We were representing the country China. I thought I'd share our adventures and ideas with you in case you are getting ready for Thinking Day, Chinese New Year or if you just want to make a Chinese dragon costume.
I was hoping to figure out how to record a voice-over for this video so I could explain how we made the costume but I could not so I put a supply list and brief instructions in the video description on the You tube watch page. Here you can see the dragon in action!
The head was made of cardboard boxes covered in corrugated paper and crepe paper party streamers. The tail was made of 3 red rectangle disposable tablecloths sewed together with my sewing machine (yes, we sewed them, can you believe that worked?!?) and spray painted with scales. I attached the tail to the head with carpet tape. Again, for more details read the description under the video here. Here are a couple closer pics I took in my studio:
The girls researched the country and made the Tri-fold display. We served rice and tea.
We had Chinese money on display and the girls made swaps that were rice and toothpicks glued into bottle caps to look like bowls of rice with chopsticks, then they were glued to fun-foam place mats. there was a magnet on the back and the year (2014) on the front.
For our craft we did paper-folding. Origami is a Japanese term however the Chinese have a tradition of paper-folding as well, they generally made boats and hats.
The girls taught other girl scouts to make these paper boats.
The girls also learned how to make a Chinese throwing star but we soon realized that it was too advanced a craft for the amount of time we had.
I made this tutorial for Chinese New Year back in January, it would also be a good project for thinking day, either as a decoration, an activity (if you have a long craft time) or to use in the performance.
Supplies to make the Chinese Dragon and the above paper drum craft can be found at Papermart. A great place to check out when you need craft, party or packaging supplies in bulk! I hope you enjoyed this post and hopefully it gave you some new ideas! Thanks for stopping by and til next time happy crafting!

Google Cloud Security and Compliance
How Google protects your data
How Google protects your data
We believe the public deserves to know the full extent to which governments request user information from Google. That's why we became the first company to start regularly publishing reports about government data requests.
To keep data private and secure, Google logically isolates each customer's Google Workspace data from that of other customers and users, even when it's stored on the same physical server. Only a small group of Google employees have access to customer data. For Google employees, access rights and levels are based on their job function and role, using the concepts of least-privilege and need-to-know to match access privileges to defined responsibilities. Google employees are only granted a limited set of default permissions to access company resources, such as employee email and Google's internal employee portal. Requests for additional access follow a formal process that involves a request and an approval from a data or system owner, manager, or other executives, as dictated by Google's security policies. Approvals are managed by workflow tools that maintain audit records of all changes. These tools control both the modification of authorization settings and the approval process to ensure consistent application of the approval policies. An employee's authorization settings are used to control access to all resources, including data and systems for Google Workspace products. Support services are only provided to authorized customer administrators whose identities have been verified in several ways. Googler access is monitored and audited by our dedicated security, privacy, and internal audit teams.
Within customer organizations, administrative roles and privileges for Google Workspace are configured and controlled by the customer. This means that individual team members can manage certain services or perform specific administrative functions without gaining access to all settings and data. Integrated audit logs offer a detailed history of administrative actions, helping customers monitor internal access to data and adherence to their own policies.
The customer, as the data owner, is primarily responsible for responding to law enforcement data requests; however, like other technology and communications companies, Google may receive direct requests from governments and courts around the world about how a person has used the company's services. We take measures to protect customers' privacy and limit excessive requests while also meeting our legal obligations. Respect for the privacy and security of data you store with Google remains our priority as we comply with these legal requests. When we receive such a request, our team reviews the request to make sure it satisfies legal requirements and Google's policies. Generally speaking, for us to comply, the request must be made in writing, signed by an authorized official of the requesting agency and issued under an appropriate law. If we believe a request is overly broad, we'll seek to narrow it, and we push back often and when necessary. For example, in 2006 Google was the only major search company that refused a U.S. government request to hand over two months of user search queries. We objected to the subpoena, and eventually a court denied the government's request. In some cases we receive a request for all information associated with a Google account, and we may ask the requesting agency to limit it to a specific product or service. We believe the public deserves to know the full extent to which governments request user information from Google. That's why we became the first company to start regularly publishing reports about government data requests. Detailed information about data requests and Google's response to them is available in our Transparency Report. It is Google's policy to notify customers about requests for their data unless specifically prohibited by law or court order.
Google directly conducts virtually all data processing activities to provide our services. However, Google may engage some third-party suppliers to provide services related to Google Workspace, including customer and technical support. Prior to onboarding third-party suppliers, Google conducts an assessment of the security and privacy practices of third-party suppliers to ensure they provide a level of security and privacy appropriate to their access to data and the scope of the services they are engaged to provide. Once Google has assessed the risks presented by the third-party supplier, the supplier is required to enter into appropriate security, confidentiality, and privacy contract terms.

Robert Browning and Elizabeth Barrett Browning
Elizabeth Barrett showed a gift for literature since she was a young girl. And a couple of her early collections of poetry were so well-regarded, she was considered for the position of England's Poet Laureate. Unfortunately for Barrett, she spent a fair number of years bedridden and a bit reclusive, partly due to a spinal injury she suffered as a child, and partly due to a fear of her domineering dad. By most accounts, Barrett's father, Edward Barrett Moulton, did love his 12 children -- but he didn't want any of them to get married. Ever. His three girls were especially terrified at the thought of disobeying him in this regard [sources: Classic Reader, PBS, NNDB].
Enter Robert Browning. Browning was also a poet, and began reading Barrett's poems in 1844. Intrigued, he began writing to her in 1845, when she was 39 and he was 33. Soon the two were corresponding regularly, and eventually Browning began to visit. The two fell madly, passionately in love. When the couple decided to marry in 1846, Barrett was terrified of her father's reaction, so they married in a secret ceremony, then set up house in Italy. Although Barrett subsequently informed her father of her marriage and begged his forgiveness, he never forgave her or saw her again. In fact, all of the letters she wrote to him were returned unopened [source: NNDB].
Nevertheless, Barrett was incredibly happy with Browning. The two had a son, Robert, and remained devoted to one another until Barrett's death, in her husband's arms, in 1861 [sources: PBS, NNDB].

The 2012 Child Maintenance Scheme - how maintenance is paid
Both parents are legally responsible for the financial costs of the children. If you split up and you don't have day to day care of the children, you may have to pay child maintenance to the other parent.
If the Child Maintenance Service (CMS) arranges maintenance under the 2012 Child Maintenance Scheme, they will calculate how much maintenance has to be paid. They will then let each parent know how this amount will be paid.
This page tells you more about the way the money can be collected and paid under the 2012 Child Maintenance Scheme.
Ways of paying maintenance
There are two ways to pay maintenance:
- the Direct Pay scheme
- the Collect & Pay service.
The Direct Pay Scheme
If you use the Direct Pay scheme you arrange between yourselves how and when the maintenance will be paid. There is no further involvement from the CMS.
The Collect & Pay service
If there's a reason why you can't make payments between yourselves, you can ask to use the Collect & Pay service. The CMS will collect payments from the parent who pays maintenance and pay them to the other parent.
Collection fees have been introduced for parents using the Collect & Pay service.
How to work out which payment method to use
Working out which payment method to use depends on how easily you can agree payments between you and also whether you're paying or getting maintenance.
If you have to pay maintenance
In most cases, the CMS will ask you whether you want to pay using the Direct Pay option.
You can ask to use the Collect & Pay Service but bear in mind that you'll eventually have to pay a fee for using this service and the other parent will also get less money.
If you're the parent getting maintenance
At the moment, you have to agree before a Direct Pay arrangement is set up.
You can only ask to use the Collect & Pay Service if the parent paying maintenance has failed to keep to a Direct Pay arrangement or you have good reason to think they may miss payments.
If you think the parent may miss payments
If you're the parent who should get maintenance and you have good reason to think that your ex-partner is unlikely to pay, make sure you let the CMS know your reasons when you make an application for maintenance.
Where possible, give proof of why you think they won't make payments. For example, if you've tried a family-based agreement that has failed because your ex-partner didn't keep to it, tell the CMS when you make your application.
Other reasons which the CMS would accept could be where your ex-partner has a history of not paying money that is due for other things, or where you've been threatened by your ex-partner.
If the CMS has good reason to doubt a parent will pay maintenance, they won't offer them the option of Direct Pay. They will have to use the Collect & Pay service.
How is maintenance paid to you?
There are various ways maintenance can be paid to you.
If you're using the Direct Pay scheme
Child maintenance will normally be paid to you through your bank account. However, you can choose another method of payment, such as cheque or through a money transfer scheme
If you're using the Collect & Pay Service
Payments are usually made through your bank account. If you haven't got a bank account you can use the Payment Exception Service.
Keeping records
Whichever scheme you use, it's important that both of you keep a record of the payments you make and get, in case there are disputes about payment.
If the maintenance is paid through a bank, make sure you each keep your relevant bank statements. If the money is paid by cash, make sure you each have signed and dated receipts. If the money is paid through a money transfer option, keep copies of the paperwork you'll get with the payment.
Online child maintenance facility
You can register to use the self-service CMS online facility to manage your case. You can make and receive safe and secure payments 24 hours a day, update your details, send enquiries, and see records of letters and phone calls.

I would raise your body from the grave.
If I could,
I would mold your ashes into flesh.
The energy released would be worth –
Just one more day,
One more moment.
To Charleston we went,
And we saw the sea.
Down old dirt roads, some stone streets.
If you had flown I would have
Prayed for wings, a lift
Into the heavenly skies.
Although you cried for Eastern Georgia,
Somewhere deep in Richmond County,
Down the way of interstate 20,
Somewhere east of 85,
I shamefully refused your hand.
Cry once more and I will heed your scream.
Drive and I will ride with you.
I will run farther than my legs can carry.
Hold my number in your memory.
When you visualize Augusta's sky,
This time I will fight for the front seat.
