    My parents had phoned up job centre manager to double check on their system computer that my son also in recept of disability living allowance because my son is deaf as well. The manager told us that i can now staying on income support until my son finishing at school because my child is on disability living allowance and they had found it on their computer and apology to me. I didnt know that at first until my parents had a phone call from CBA and advise jobcentre of my son had DLA. So, i won't be transfer to JSA. I am relief now. So, my holiday go ahead now.

    So you have not changed the dates?

    What rate of DLA does your son receive?

    My son had DLA on middle rate of care and lower rate of mobility, the same as me as well.

    No, the holiday havent been changed because my parents phone up CBA and the CBA manager had phoned up jobcentre manager.

    So, i am glad to stay on income support until my son finishing at school at the age of 18. I don't think the tory won't change this because I am disabled and my son is also disabled as we both had disability living allowance.

    Always nice to see a happy ending.

    Fantastic. Another good news story.

    Can we take it that you no longer "hate this UK government"?? That would just be the icing on the cake for me!!!

    it say on my hearing chart of 120% hearing loss of my audiology report - maybe you don't understand how the audiology chart work out. They already sent a copy of it sent to DLA ages ago and DLA accepted me. I got nothing to hide and an honest person.
