Hello
I hope this makes sense truly sorry if it doesn't. For over 15 years Me and my Brother
have been on a joint claim for HB, we live in the same house and both have the same
Genetic illness. Mum lives with us, Dad sadly passed away we have always been totally
upfront and honest with everyone including letting HB know within 2 days of Dad's death, I had some bad news in regards to my prognosis a few months ago I am older than my brother so we expected it, Like the Migration invites from ESA support group
with disability premium to UC, but they only invited my brother. We just assumed we would hear together and this is the reason for posting, I believe under the new UC
we could be classed as unconnected adults, There's hardly any information online
and I spoke to a local charity and even they were struggling,
My main concern given the HB on this property is a joint application if my brother is moved on UC then would that trigger a change in circumstances for myself therefore
triggering a new application for UC and losing the protections an invite provides.
It never once dawned on us that maybe one would hear 1st without the other.
I am so worried about this my main consultant means well and phoned the house
to say he knows something is wrong because my latest bloods are showing i've had
a big bleed and if it carries on will need another blood transfusion. Think the worry has been made worse by the charities not knowing themselves.
Personally I think the local HB have not informed the other sections of the setup
so would this be enough for them to withdraw my brothers invite until they sort it out
because they have made big errors in the past, like money not going in or someone elses name on the letter but the right address.
Any advice would be brilliant please
to show how terrified I am the rent has been increased twice since they awarded HB
and never made contact to tell them, so been cutting down on food to make sure the rents been paid and never missed a payment in all these years.
thank you.
