Well not a good day really, the short of it we were told the caravan valued at £1200 was an asset which could not be kept but the shock was the car. We said it was needed for my wife to get to her appontments and therapy sessions due to her diagnosed mental dissorder and I used it sometimes for work.
I valued it at £700 and we were told we could not have as unless it was solely needed for work (if public transport not an option) it is classed as an asset and if we want it we need to pay.... £400 !!!! Where do we get that from but we need the car!!!!
In the end our parents are lending us the money... great new debt!!
Pretty dissappointed really as I really tried to fight the cause but they weren't interested.
They went through all the rest of the questions but they did not go throught the expenditure details? Will the go through these at a later date? What happens next? Do we just get some forms to fill in? Wasn't really told what to expect next so if anyone has any advice it may prepare us if there is more to come.
Pretty exhausted now but we hope that is the worst of it, just a shock about the car really!! |

Sounds harsh to me, just seems to be luck of the draw in who interviews you which is pretty unfair.
Well chin-up TR, at least those pesky debts have gone and an IPA only lasts 3 years as opposed to an IVA which is 5!

Hello turborat
Sorry to hear that your interview did not go too well. Let's hope things start to get better for you in the months to come. As you say you are probably over the worst of it, and you near enough know where you stand now.
All the best

Hey TR...
Sorry to hear things did not go quite as well as hoped for you, but I guess at least it's done now and hopefully you will feel better about it all soon.
It can only get better!
Take care. |

They haven't let me know yet. They just described the extra cash which will be available due to the zero tax situation.
They said they will look at the expenditure and compare to the latest living guidlines and then let us know what the IPA will be.
Thankx for all your support. |

Hi TR
Not s good news then.:-(
You will get any excemption letters now from the OR and details of any IPA if you are to go onto the NT code one.
They may call again, but the car once bought will be excempt the caravan they will make arrangements for it to go if you cant keep it.
It will be a steady flow of letters now. If you have not heard about the I&E in a few weeks you could contact them but no news is good news.
LOL
