Apparently they cant help with mortgage payments until after 33 weeks of no work !!! aaarrrggghhh.....wha do we do??? Hopefully we can claim council tax benefit, but not had anything confirmed yet as we cant make claim until he is actually no work left. Anyway with this payment (thats if we get the highest amount, as it says up to), child benefit an childrens tax credits there still is not enough to cover just the mortgage. Does anyone know of any other benefits we may be entitled to as a family etc...Things just seem to be coming smacking us in the face at the moment and we dont know what to do?? Also, sorry for another one, but can we write to his creditors who are unsecured and ask for payment breaks, will they even consider this? he has always paid on time etc...but now we are living off overdraft and credit cards and they are sure to reach their limit soon [V] [V] [V] Onwards and Upwards is the way im going :-0) xx [/quote]   Check here to include your profile signature.
