Jade has just been told she looses income tax credit for living with me, thats £60 a week gone... = no food.
Madness. I'll never figure out some of the ridiculous social security rules - its almost as though teh govt prefer single parent families  I cant believe Ive been here for 2 weeks and have only just found this unsecure internet connection.  Yes is madness, we have to reapply for everything now. Meh! |

Matt, if between the two of you, you earn less than £16k (ish) then you may get working tax credit. Or is this what she is losing? There's also child tax credit, not sure how you get that as I've never applied It's all on the tax credits of the Inland Rev web site. |

I do and we are looking into it.
She gets child tax credits I think.
Just trying to decide what to do car wise, Seat have offered me a good personal hire purchase deal on a new seat leon 1.6 sport job, dunno whether to get something decent (and pay less insurance etc then what I am now and have a 3 yr warranty) or buy a cheap car.
Either way I have a mum to pay off, could do it even if I go on PHP - because its a low deposit offer type thing.

Mr. Yawner, she should lose it all, and an arm for having a child out of wedlock, the shame of it! They are a young family just starting out and clearly need the extra cash, there should be a 3-6 month time limit to allow women who meet new partners (and cohabit) find additional income streams, or offer the couple a greater monetary sum for staying together and creating a household where the child(ren) feel safe and will prosper in the education system without turning to a life of crime. |

Why not go pch - personal contract hire?
* You will suffer NO depreciation losses - said to be £1000 on most cars when you leave the dealership!
* You can get a replacement vehicle at term end OR just walk away, so a new car - every couple of years, typically
* You have EXACT fixed costs for the whole Lease Term - be it 6, 12, 18, 24 or 36 months
* NEVER pay Road Tax Fund or MOT - this is always included
* You could also take out a maintenance agreeement for a fairly low amount - so NO repair costs
* Your Vehicle is ALWAYS under Manufacturers Warranty.
As famous philanthropist, Paul John Getty said 'Buy what appeciates - Lease what depreciates'
*** All the above copied from another forum.
If I could have afforded the pch for the spec of motor I wanted I would have done that.
Thats the one, its a special offer on a 1.6 seat leon sport |

No, the sales people talked me out of it, not sure I got the best deal tbh -Im on finance for 5 years - still means I can get out like the PCH - but also means if I dont want to, I can own it at the end of 5yrs.

I've never known car insurance to reduce when you move. I reckon they just make an admin figure up in their head.
mine did. North London to Herts, I'm not surprised.  Got to do mine next, moving ever so slightly north.. fingers crossed! I'm due a refund of.. £12.57 Better than a kick in the teeth. Next step.. business use. Granty one at a time. |
