    Hello everyone, it's my first time posting on here, but here goes!!!

    I receive incapacity (long term), DLA (low care, high mobility) and Industrial Accident benefit. My Partner receives Child tax credit (4 children, as 5th is 18 now), DLA (lower care) and child benefit (or family allowance or what ever they call it now).

    Our children are aged 15,13,9 and 2.

    Would we be entitled to this CWP, as I am not sure and we have just received our gas (£179) and electric (£289) for the quarter. These seem really high, as they are not even for over the winter (cold) months. So as you can see they CWP payments would come in very handy LOL.

    All the best to everyone and thanks for all the tips/help over 2009 Martin and keep up the good work for 2010 onwards.

  • 1 payment in the bank today.

    Still waiting for 1 more.
    Oh what's the bloody point...?
  • My second of 3 payments went in this morning. For me they seem to be going in on a Wednesday which is also my normal pay day :T
    :j £2 coins = £2.00 :j

    Hi Ian, unfortunately these are not qualifying benefits, as Incapacity Benefit is not a means tested benefit.
    To be entitled, you would need to firstly be in receipt of either Pension Credit, Income Support, income-based Jobseeker’s Allowance or income-related Employment and Support Allowance in the assessment phase.

    Regards

    I received first payment today after approx 2 weeks after the trigger. There was another trigger on 8th Jan so don't know how long that payment will take.
  • Still no payment for me.

    you'd think i'd have had at least one of the 4 payments i'm due. :rolleyes:

    Same here Julio.....except mine is 3 payments.

    Mind you, with my heating not working at the moment and the scary gas monster not needing to be fed as a consequence, my immediate need for the money is not as desperate.

    Dread to think what my electric bill will be though!
    We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.
    Eldests' EDS diagnosis 4.5.10, mine 13.1.11 eekk - now having fun and games as a wheelchair user.
