Starsky that isn't exactly what was said I don't think? you warned about IP addys showing if one posted a message on a specific site.

The way I took it was that unless one was a reader of certain blogspots one would not be likely to recognise the name anyway let alone post on that site?

I saw your brave reply before it was deleted Starsky, and you know I said no such thing.....

Your style is incredibly similar to a member who has just deleted their account........

Did you see that thread on here Aileen ??

Hi Aileen , I saw the thread , it was I think deleted by the poster...it went fast >>>>>

okay thank you

no you dont Krazee horse....

Working Tax Credit is for people who are employed or self-employed (either on their own or in a partnership), who
usually work 16 hours or more a week
are paid for that work, and
expect to work for at least 4 weeks

and who are

aged 16 or over and responsible for at least one child, or
aged 16 or over and disabled, or
aged 25 or over and usually work at least 30 hours a week

(also if you are over 50 and have been on IS or JSA)

I saw a thread earlier about a Philip Holden. Half an hour ago.

Two post in to it and someone mentioned the words sex and offender.

The post disappeared but there wasn't the usual blank when someone or admin deletes. Why?

Now the thread has disappeared.

Strange or what?

So you don't need to actually have a child to claim?

Thankyou Ann :) ~~~~

(this is much less reckless than I was intending lol) xx

yep

with regard to the coucil tax benefit, as Tony sayss anyone can apply...and it will depend on whether you are classed as being 'low income' .

with the working tax credits I have been told that if the business makes a certain amount or over, then the rate will go down to around half....and so on. If you have been on IS or JSA for a certain period you will be able to claim it whether or not you have a child...

so Tony anyone one of us could be in this percentage?

Anyone can actually apply for any benefit. Then depending upon the criteria an award may, or may not, be made.

Really, there's only one way to find out. If you are finding things a struggle make a visit to the DWP - it's statistically proven that a large proportion of eligble people don't actually claim........

does that lady get maintence of her ex-husband too?

*Sits quietly in the corner - keeping my eye on Rose *

how do you qualify for these benefits?

hi everyone hows things

really then I need to get divorced

There is a seperate scale for Council Tax & Housing Benefit.

Anyone can apply - you don't have to be on IS or JSA etc...... It's geared to your income

Hello Krazee, and rose,

The ladies i have spoken too get a reduction on council tax and help towards rent, on is a lady recently divorced, she said she is £450 a month better off now she isnt married.
