Gem! Tell me about it!! The income support form is an absolute bloody nightmere!! Seriously, be carfull about what you fill in .. you have no need to lie though .. your over 16 and the only money you get is your DLA ... my mum earns a substantial sum of money a week and i was really scared about writing it down ... BUT .. i did, and i was still accepted for it!! You should get Income support with the disaled premium .. should be about £65 a week If you ever lived on your own you would become severly disabled on top of that and would get between another £30 and £60 a week. The IB and IS people are complcated and although i only get Income suport its actually given to me by the incapacity benefit people becasue im sick not unemployed or on a low income .. madness!! Hope you get there though, remember if you cant fill in the forms you can ask the citozens advice people to help you out!! Love always, Jo xx
