Well done for not letting it go, and congratulations:D

Thanks Blind you gave me some great advice and the confidence to question everything - my OR even thanked me for my detailed Emails over last few months:j:j:j She probably knew I would come back again if she tried to refuse:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Please remember they cant use child benefit for use of IPA and i dont think they can use your sons dla either, so with your figures you shouldnt have ipa, i would ask to see how they have worked that out.

I am so pleased or you. I have to say this site......especially bat and fermi....gave me the confidence to fight my OR too and i won:j. I think without this forum and the empowerment(knowledge is power;)) a lot of us would just accept what OR's say as gospel and be poorer for it.


Now roll on discharge date for you;).

That has completely panicked me so I checked and it says this on my screen

What do I include in my income?

Your income includes all payments you get,
including income from self-employment, PAYE employment, benefits (excluding child benefits),
working tax credit and any
payments under a pension scheme.

Does that mean that child tax credit isn't counted either I wonder?

I guess youre going to have to ring the insolvency service up , but even then ,it might depend on who answers the phone. I presume you are worried about an IPA like I am. If possible , would it be a good idea to adjust the figures to your advantage no matter whether the benefits are counted or not.
For example , on my soa I showed a neg balance of 200 pounds.
I did this by reducing my working hours

Thanks Dalip,

I do agree knowledge is power and would advise anyone who has no interview and gets IPA to ask for a breakdown of allowances like I did and question it. I nearly gave up but after reading more posts thought "why should I" and carried on resulting in no IPA:):T:T

Only child benefit - child tax credit is included as income for IPA purposes.
