    dang, i didn't expect to cause that much of a row :)

    i'll probably speak to whoever calls me about it. there's no guarantee i'll even win it of course, but i'll get some advice on how to proceed.

    obviously i'd rather them not snaffle it away from me after working my backside off for a year to win it, but we'll see what happens.

    I thought this was the DRO board - has it closed? If its still active - I wondered if anyone could answer a query for a young relative who has been advised to get a DRO please?

    If his circumstances change - that is, if he gets a job which pays a regular decent wage (his own small business is failing)- would he have to declare that when the DRO is current?

    Yes he would. ANY changes of circumstances have to be declared to the IS. That does not mean however that his DRO would be revoked. It all depends on the surplus money he has left over at the end of the month. (This is the key). It could very well be that he could work full-time and still be left with under £50. If however he has more then that, then his dro maybe revoked. I don't know if there is any leway that the IS have with regards to the amount of surplus, say if he had £60 at the end of the month he maybe kept on the DRO i don't know, maybe a call to the IS to clarify if it looks like he might have would be worth doing.
