    Yes, I expect he should get at least something in tax credits.

    The alternative is M can leave taking his daughter with him which leaves a family of four on social security.

    If F is the mother of M's daughter, it seems odd that you appear so sure he could just up and leave and take the daughter with him.

    We seem to have a lot of contributors not reading the post before pressing the reply button. I have never said I was a relative, and I have never said my salary was otherwise.

    Yes you did, in your first post!

    Well spotted. For the record F is my partner's niece.

    Because he has told me. I think he is very brave to have stuck it out this far.

    I've had enough.

    The OP is either a troll or an idiot and I've got better things to do than deal with either!

    I've just provided you with all the links you need regarding M's liability so with no thanks.

    If that what this forum is all about? collecting points?
