Im posting on here cos i know more people will see it and can therfore give more advise.

Myself and my husband are in reciept of some benifits. He works and we have four DC's. Everything we get were entitled to, it's things like working tax credits etc.

My husband is due to recieve about £10,000 inheritance in the next 12 months or so. My question is will the benifits take this into account and ammend what we recieve or as its a one off payment will they leave it alone??

Does anyone know? Thanks in advance guys

A relative of mine declared his and lost all his benefit so he didn't gain much at all from the money. Even the adviser said he shouldn't have declared it!!!
