Caz33,

Is the DLA for your children all in their names? My sons is in his name so it isn't actually mine - so to speak. There are a few posts on DLA for children and I think if it is not yours and is in someone elses name, then the OR can't touch it. I don't even think you have to declare it.

If you wanted to, you could add it in your SOA then counter it with your childrens needs & costs.

Here's the posts. http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=1414657&page=3

I've decided not to add mine, but if the OR does ask then I will back it up with his costs.

HTH.

ok thanku,the dla is in there names our childtax credit has just gone up alot but thats because theres 3severe disability premiums on there.thats what i thought because had i off dealt with the creditors myself i wouldnt off disclosed the dla because its not mine.

It's unlikely they'll ask you for a penny, if they do, just say sorry, no can do.
