  • Bun how long did it take for your benefits and stuff to be sorted? My child benefit is sorted and now weekly from tuesday (also had an emergency payment today)... so that's something I suppose. Bricking it about this interview on monday though.. expecting some mini hitler civil servant type to make me feel like scum of the earth for being a young mum needing to go on benefits..

    Yea. We're having to go through the CSA because of the income support. But he's covering the bills until the benefits are sorted. I'm more concerned about the day to day living money. :(
