    Hello @sally1966   Pleased to meet you welcome.

    Thank you for sharing.  Sorry what has happened.

    Have you appealed or have you complained. All I can add is to speak to your MP .

    They are interested in what going on.   I know members of our community have done so.

    All of the community can identify what you are going through. I am one.  Myself.

    It is worth contacting CAB .  For any advice . I would suggest.

    Have a look also at any of our benefit advice we have to get information.  Would help.

    We are a supportive, friendly community . Care and share.   Hope we can be of help. Ready to listen.

    Take care.

    Hi @sally1966, when your son got 0 points did you appeal this decision? Is this the assessment that you are waiting for?
