Hi.I was wondering if anyone could advise me as the job centre werent much help.I was made redundant 3 months ago and claim contribution based jsa of 60.50 a week. My partner was on maternity pay but her employer went into liquidation so she now recieves nothing apart from child benefit and some child tax credit.What should she do? the job centre said to put her on my jsa which would boost it up by 30ish pound a week.She cant work as she is looking after our baby so do we just accept we must live on substantially less money now and hope I find a new job soon or is there something else she can claim? we do get hb/ctb as well that pays most of our rent.thanks for any advice guys and gals.x
Under the circumstances you have described, i could not say if there will be any other benefits available to you.
However i would advise that you make sure you have informed Tax Credits of the correct circumstances. Depending what details you have on your award you may find you are entitled to more Childs Tax Credit if you have not advised them on Current Year (2009/10 Tax Year) figures. If you haven't gave them CY estimates then i suggest calling them, advising them on how much you estimate your JSA at for this year and they will calculate your current award on these figures. Be warned though, if you under estimate by too much it may create an Over Payment and i would not like this to happen.
As long as you sit down and work through the figures correctly, you may find your CTC will increase.
type entitledto into search then enter your figures into it that will tell u what u are entitled to also go to the tax credits website and run the calculator as it will tell u what u will get 4 2009/2010 PF
Hi all,my son has just come out of a mental health unit quite recently,he is supervised by a CPN ,and the EIT,after having awful trouble, we have finally managed to get incapacity benefit after a wait of 4 months ,in which time ,the council were no help ,only the severn trent water trust was..,he got allocated the property literally days before being sectioned,and has now been released but ,apart from a bed ,crockery and a toaster,thats all he has in it,ive tried for a community care crant ,but you canot get one if your on icap benefit, after hes paid the backdated bills hes left with approximatley 8 quid a week ,so a crisis loan is out of the question, does anyone know of information to help
The Cpn is next to useless ,it was me who found out about the community care grant,the CAB had no thoughts on anything.I never thought of the salvation army tho ,so thankyou
