I know I should only get what I am entitled to and am I right in thinking that whatever happens either in the support group or work related group I will get some ESA for 12 months?
Yep, you will receive some ESA either way for twelve months. Some people are suggesting that those who are migrated from IB will have their time counted on IB towards the twelve months, but from what I have read that is not the case. Obviously, the govt may change their mind about the whole thing before it comes into effect!Gone ... or have I?0 -
I have recently moved in with a friend (of the opposite sex). Been slated on here before for saying this - as nobody seems to believe that in 2011, peolple cannot live in a platonic relationship.
Just ignore some people, they couldn't think their way out of a paper bag.
I'd love to see what these people would have thought about my situation over 20 years ago. I ended up living with 3 men after moving to Devon from Leeds with my friend and her 2 male cousins. She met someone and moved in with him. Her room was then rented to another man which meant I ended up sharing with 3 guys who I had no romantic thoughts towards whatsoever.
So come on folks it is quite possible to share with a guy and not be "living together". Mind you convincing the DWP may just be another matter.0 -

I know - it is ridiculous.
I know some people 'try it on' - but I have no reason to, it would not benefit me in anyway
The questions on the form are not easy though - as they are not suited to everybodys situation. But I can only answer them and see what happens.
What a mad world we live in.0
