We were not allowed a holiday/break, I think it depends on the OR

Thanks hon, have just spotted one box we havnt got an answer for (hubbys income tax ref, and it isnt on his pay slips :O ) so will be making a hurried call in the morning!

Not looking forward to speaking to the OR lol.

xmas baby: hubby and I are both going BR tomorrow, so I've done the I&E jointly, hence the £60 (£30 each)

Hi Melanie,

Why would a domestic break not be allowed by the OR? I have read other people's I&E lists and they have been succesful in getting this allowance. I have put it in my I&E in the hope that I'll get it, although the amount I have asked for is £30 per month.

Confused now.

Could someone possibly give me a prediction of what they think might get allowed from my list?
Sparkle83 Posted - 02 March 2009 : 13:20:54
so will I have to reduce my housekeeping also?! I can see I'm gonna get an IPA and not be able to afford it because they wont accept the costs I have.
Melanie.n Posted - 02 March 2009 : 09:31:14
The allowance is a maximum of £21 per household for food insurance etc of pets, not per pet

eeeeeep :O

I included pet food in my housekeeping. I guess I'll have to take the insurance off them, as if I get an IPA, I definately cant afford to have them insured :(

I didn't have a cat when I went BR, but when I have mi I & E reassessed in April (pay cut at work) I'm going to claim £20 for him - £12 insurance per month and the rest for his food.

I was allowed £10 a week pet food (2 cats) and my pet insurance is £8 a month for both with Saga.

We have 2 cats, the pet insurance per month is £20 for both and food/litter about another £20.

The maximum allowed is £20, not PER PET, but overall, so we had to pay the insurance out of surplus.

Don't worry and just fill it in. My OR just went through, questioned a couple of things, and ticked what she allowed. You could play with it for 10 years, better to just do it and wait and see :)
