You need to get a better off calculation done, but in reality you should be better off on PCs.

Just spoken to these people and she's advised me I should be claiming CTC as from 06 September when my IS shut off
Off I go to the CTC phone line.
UPDATE
Just spoken to Tax credit people who say I'm entitled to £54 a week.

Does it affect your PC entitlement?0 -
The CTC award won't make any difference to the PC award, any money related to children is fully disregarded0

What is annoying is that I was never told by either IS. IB or PC people that I would lose the child part of my claim when I was shoved off IS onto PC and if it wasnt for your post and the incredibly helpfull Website you gave me I would probably still be in the dark.
A CTC Claim pack is now in the post and I owe you a pint.:beer:
Many thanks.The DWP = Legally kicking the Disabled when they are down.0
