I've just been approved as a Foster Carer by my LA. I was just wondering what people do about the finances...do you have a separate bank account that you get your fostering allowance paid into? Is it necessary to keep your normal household finances separate, or ok to have it all together? Do any parts of the fostering allowance need to be accounted for therefore making it easier to keep things separate?
I don't know if I should be receiving information about this kind of thing from the LA? I think I'll get a handbook so it might all be in there...but thought I'd ask whilst waiting...
Thanks.
