new Income/Expenses

seh567

I have received a letter in respect of early discharge, it is a questionaire which has to be returned within 14 days. I have a question about income & expenditure.

I am unemployed and unfortunately my circumstances have not changed since BR in March this year. When I applied for BR I had to keep my expenses to the bear minimum to ensure my expenses were not higher than my income to avoid the BR application being rejected.

My question is should I now give a true account of my expenses given that it will far exceed my benefits income. I have been living within my means with financial help from my parents, which I am most grateful for.

I have been keeping busy helping a local hospice charity and there is a good chance I might secure employment with them in the next couple of months. Keeping my fingers crossed that I am lucky to get early discharge before this happens.

If it's of any help, when I did my original SoA for my BR, my expenses where higher than my income, and I explained that friends/family would be helping me. The OR was ok with that answer.
