Hi, im a single mum with two kids, jobless and absolutely on my own. I have savings of £1000 in my name and 1400 on each kids name. Recently recieved a letter for an interview call from job centre with customer compliance officers. Im scared as i might have not declared these savings as it came solely from the csa i receive from my ex husband for maintanence. Is it going to be a problem? Please help.!0
