I am my son’s appointee and UC gets paid in my own account where all his bails are paid and was transferring money in his account for food etc. my salary was being paid in this account until a month ago when I opened a new account and separated the two .
UC have requested 4 months worth of statements which is not an issue.
question is if it will cause issues that my salary was going into the same account? I can prove all tge payments for my son . I shouldn’t feel stressed as I am not claiming anything and all the money sent were bank transfers to son .0 -
thank you

Hi @stilllooking, welcome to the community. While it's usually better to keep things separate as much as possible, it sounds like you have a lot of clear records to show how things have been managed before you separated things off. If you explain this to them in the review and be open about how you were managing his money and bills, hopefully they'll understand. I'm sure they will have seen things like this before many times with appointees ☺️
Hope it all goes well.
