Less and less money - then they cut housing benefit

BigAunty

My take on this is a bit more positive - namely that the OP has kindly offered his services to help the household with their complicated benefit situation which has left them on the breadline, only he isn't very familiar with benefits and he's not yet elicited from them the type of information from them that he needs for us forum members to make the best suggestions. I think the OP is being sweet.

I agree, I'm especially tickled by the fact that because the 19 year old once filled in a form to join the police this means he can't work full time. :rotfl:

This is the only job he can get so far... He is trying to find more full time work in the mean time, however if you had not noticed that nobody is employing young adults.

I would disagree, the care sector is always recruiting. If anything being under 21 would help him as the NWM is at a lower rate. Companies recruit all the time, going on the assumptions that their aren't jobs or they aren't available for people who are ..........., is poor thinking and counter productive.
