Please contact CCCS they will help you but let us MSErs help aswell.
1. Contact http://www.entitledto.co.uk/ to see what else you need to be claiming
2. Your oh needs to find work asap
3. DO NOT TAKE OUT A LOAN, IT WILL MAKE MATTERS WORSE!!!

5. speak to the utilities that you owe to and explain what is happening. Don't carry on getting in to troubleProud to be me, proud to be who I am!!0 -

My husband is unemployed but looking for a job.
Im in alot of debt jointly with my husband and also have to go to Magistrates court on 8th September as Council tax has not been paid since living here (lived here 4moths, hubby left the Army).
I just dont know what to do, I have more outgoings that I have money coming in, im so tired and stressed I dont know what I can do. Before you ask, my husband is not much help and I dont have much of a family. His family dont seem to care. We cant get a loan either.
I just feel like crying all the time.
Hi Maria, I'm sorry to hear you feel so down about this all.
It will get better though, and most of this is dependent on your husband getting a job which I hope he is able to do soon.
One thought that did occur to me - how would you feel about swapping your after-work cleaning job for a 'early morning' cleaning job? I know you would be as tired, but at least you would have more time in the evening with your little girl which might make you feel a little better.
Best of luck, I hope your luck changes soon.0 -
