Had our Interview - what happens next?

Hi Everyone

Well we've done the court and now both had our interview with the OR....

What happens next?

He mentioned the expenditure and said it exceeded our income - do you think we will get an IPA?

He also said there is a slim possibility of a house visit?

I'm scared we may get a BRO/BRU will they write or would he of mentioned it in the interview?

Do we have to fill in further forms later down the line??

I'm feeling so much better and starting to sleep at night

Thanks

Going to have a large glass of wine :beer:

Sleeplessnights :T

    Sit back and wait. It often goes very quiet.

    He mentioned the expenditure and said it exceeded our income - do you think we will get an IPA?

    If that's the right way round then you have no surplus income for an IPA to claim. Did you/they man it that way round?

    He also said there is a slim possibility of a house visit?

    Did they say why? That is rather unusual.

    I'm scared we may get a BRO/BRU will they write or would he of mentioned it in the interview?

    Impossible to tell in the long run, but no mention now is not a bad sign.

    Do we have to fill in further forms later down the line??

    If you have filled in the ones that would have come with the initial pack they send you, then in straightforward cases it is often only another I&E form or two that has to be done. However any individual case can be different.

    Excellent. :D

    Glad it seemed to go OK. Enjoy the wine. :)

    Sorry didn't make it clear -

    Our income is lower than the expenses - so we should be fine.
