And if so do they pay for the upcoming month or the month that just concluded?
In my contract I request payment every Friday for the upcoming week but I have one single parent that is paid monthly, things are tight financially, and would like to pay monthly. Next Friday she's paying and will owe for next week and according to my contract the following week (last week of March) and then wanted to start paying monthly.
On one hand I would feel bad collecting 2 weeks for March and then all of April at one time but on the other hand I would be nervous going a whole month w/o payment as I will need that income for food and supplies.
What do you guys think? Should I just collect payment for the rest of March and then let her pay me from now on at the end of each month or just tell her that I can allow her to pay monthly but it would have to be upfront for the upcoming month. And unfortunately I will have to request payment for April upfront.
