Your local council has a welfare rights officer. Get him to go there immediately. They are experts on benefit entitlements and can even act on your behalf in appeals. I cannot recommend them highly enough. |

looks like his hands are tied. as he was living abroad for 3 years and came home due to cancer and was not living in house at time he has hit a brick wall , if he gives the tenants notice and moves back in he has to wait 39 weeks to get his interest paid on mortgage , but can't cover mortgage till then . can't get I/B as not paid enough stamps and can't get DLA as he can dress himself and doesnt need help with cooking as can no longer swallow food ...
he may as well hit the pub eh if he could only afford it 
thanks all i am gonna try talking to his cancer nurse and welfare rights

Marvellous news POV! Welfare rights officers can be a godsend. They really are specialists in their field. I'm so glad your friend is getting help.
Please keep us informed, if possible. | |
