    Hi Sammy

    Would be interested if anyone else knows if DLA should be shown....if your son is over 18 & contributes to the outgoings (ie board etc) then maybe it should.

    Be interested in others` comments.

  • Hiya
    In the world of debt and negotiating, DLA is classed as income but then taken straight out as disability expenditure, so in effect not included. Im sure it will be the same in BR but not definate. Im sure someone will know the answer, alternatively give the IS helpline a ring.
