in Bankruptcy & living with it
I am due to be discharged in a few weeks but my health is not good at the moment and am trying to weigh up my options

I pay NO IPA

Currently on JSA

Live with a parent

rather than mess about with Drs notes and claiming sickness benefit etc I may sign off for a bit (I live with my mother so wont starve!)

I know I would have to tell the OR , but as I would have no income for the remainder of my bankruptcy what would they say, I know the OR is powerless to make me work/ look for work etc

Thanks in advance
