courses

I am paying out every month for a course which will mean I can have a sideline job to boost my income by this time next year.Will this be allowable when totting up how much I have left to pay creditors or will I have to give up the course?

  • Are you with a DMP company or doing it yourdelf?

    Either way it should be fine so long as you still have something left over to pay them with :)

    depending on how much it costs you might want to make a few small reductions in some areas to show willing.

    Good luck

  • Hello lone ranger.
    With regards to the business acc. Most will give you a basic business account with no credit facilities so this should be fine.
    Heard the Natwest one is pretty good.

  • What is the course you are doing?

    Its a training course to be a visiting foot health professional, will be a big improvement on my present low paid job and I could do it in addition to my job which will set me on to a more financially secure future.

    Ah ok. I was asking because I used to be an instructor & assessor with a training company & my online access wasn't revoked so still have access to all the materials. We only did Management, Business & IT though.
  • Nice thought though SBC, thanks.
