Thanks for your advice.
I could not find any information about the scale at my council site.
Do you think councils do post this out for the public?
and I have problem to prove my daughter's income. She is looking for job but not on any unemployment benefit.
Thanks again.0 -

She gets JSA, you get CT and possibly HB help but nothing changes for her.
I get pride - I've never had to sign on, but i would do it if I had to.
Thanks for your posting.
I could assure you that my daughter is a very nice girl and she always help me out.
She would help me out by applying job seeker allowance if things turn to that stages.
She just try to find a job within the next six months without rely on welfare.
Thanks again for your post0 -
so your daughter too proud to claim yet your quite happy to.
Be frank with her and tell her she either signs on so she can make up your shortfall in benefits or she changes her address to that of her boyfriend or whoever she stays with the most.
This is not your problem its your daughters.0 -
Thanks for your advice.
She never change the address of your banks and the electoral roll even when she was live away at university for years.
She could check her bank account on line and she keep moving around near her campus so she never find the urge to change address.
That doesn't look good then.
Personally I feel there is nothing long with claiming JSA, hopefully in the future she will be paying in to the system.Lost my soulmate so life is empty.
I can bear pain myself, he said softly, but I couldna bear yours. That would take more strength than I have -

sorry if I DID not get your earlier message. Please accept my humble apology.
May I ask you a favor : I trust you are very professional, so I have to assume you are very open mind.
I did read your earlier and the message is very negative to me
I do appreciate you let me know your staffs here.
and I would like to (in a very humble way) ask : could you kindly disclose( a roughly figure) how many succession referral for graduate job seeker last year or the year or since the recession you introduced successfully getting a job(I mean full time more than a months' time, not temp ) to the hotel industry?
I am very appreciated to get a first hand information.
Thanks in advance.
I worked in hotels until late 2010. Within the UK section of the chain we had 200 hotels and I would recruit 250-270 graduates for the Graduate Scheme every year. It was a 2 year programme aimed at getting them into management within 5 years. Starting pay was £15,600 for a 40-45 hour week plus perks (meals, discounts, gym membership, pension, bonuses). A duty manager would be on around £18k, a deputy management job was around £21-23k and a General Manager could earn anything over £35k.
Roughly 90% of the graduates would pass the scheme and stay with the company for 3-5 years or more.
I'm not a recruitment consultant so I haven't 'placed' anybody since then.Trying to be a man is a waste of a woman0 -
If you contact your local council, they can tell you details of the amount of non dependent deduction they will take.
Each council has it's own scheme now so they really are the only people who can advise you.
However, in most cases, they should apply the maximum deduction until they know the right level and so you should still get some help with your Council Tax.
Worth mentioning that at my council, we apply no deduction for a non dep under 25 who is on income based Jobseeker's Allowance but apply a £3.30 deduction for those not on JSA such as your daughter so it would work out better for you (and her) if she claimed a benefit.I currently manage a Housing Benefit service and have been working in Housing / council tax benefit (as was) since 2001.

I don't understand this forum.
you already jump to say the conclusion like that. I would like to ask you politely : were you there in the earlier of this year when she applied lots of job?
Do you read news about the employment market at all?
It seems no one actually appreciate she doesn't want a hand-out and blaming her not to apply for the welfare money.
What kind of society we live in?
It appears to me that by not signing on for JSA until she gets employment or registering her address as her boyfriends she is causing you financial problems. She needs to understand that and do the right thing.It's someone else's fault.0 -
wow my brain hurts trying to read your English!0

You are best off going into the council and explaining the situation. I'm an assessor and if I was assessing your circumstances I would ask for bank statements to show you daughter had no income. Then I would apply a non dep charge of zero income which would take a minimum amount off your benefit. Its best to report any changes to household or income to avoid receiving any overpayments.0
