So Happy now
How will It Work Now With The Job Centre ? Have A Interview Next Week , Also On UC Now .
Very glad to hear your good news. I would go to the interview next week just to get the person there (the work coach?) to input a note or make a phone call, whatever, to hurry up your arrears. If you are in the Limited Capability for Work Related Activity group, you should have arrears to come.

Is there anywhere local that you could take this to, for some information / advice about the rate at which various kinds of overpayment can be recovered from benefits?
If not, you could phone the helpline at Scope and ask for a call back form a benefits specialist Not as good as face to face advice, but it may help you.
