Why doesn't this not come as a surprise.... It's not about you, it's about the child. It's not about you getting enough, it's about him, as a parent, supporting his child as much as he can. If you are not together anymore, why do you care so much about not getting what your child deserves to receive? Surely the child should be the priority, not your ex?
So, your mother in law claims benefit as a single person, your ex claims benefits as a single person, and you claim benefits as a single, all living together, sharing all your bills and caring for each other and probably left with twice as much disposable income than the average family. Nice.... and you think there are no reasons at all why this arrangement warrants being investigated?0 -
right let's clear this up you are now saying im not entiled to the benifits and actual got a few facts wrong ......
disabled person is the mother she has a partner and he works full time she does not claim to be single and pays full rent.
the disable mother claims DLA only and has a career to help her with things she cant do around the house. she also has a son that has mental health probs since early school life. he has always been single just becuase she got a career it does not make them a couple your putting 2 and 2 together and getting 6.

I am confused indeed! Fair enough for mum having a working partner but are you saying that the son had always been single yet you have a child together? Or are you talking about a different son?0
