    Hi Sarah, I am so glad things are moving on for you. Maybe with CCS getting invoved it will remove some of the pressure from yourself. Fingers crossed for you OH, even if he isn't there long and find a better job once he has started at least he will be back working. Plus helping to get some income into the household would be fabby :j

    Keep on plodding :A

    And after filling in the 18 section form to apply for housing benefit while OH is off work, I now have to provide evidence of all kinds of stupid stuff!! Is it any wonder some people don't bother claiming the benfits they are entitled too!!

    It can be so annoying, hope it gets sorted soon.
    Its one of the reasons I got lots of part time jobs when out of work, CBA jumping through all the hoops - they wanted copies of my son's pay slips and bank statements, and he refused.

    I am glad that the pressure has instantly eased with you dealing with CCCS. If OH gets this job then that will make things obviously much better, but at least you know that you have a back up plan "just in case".
