I feel quite bad.

This person is an acquaintance, She was a single parent for a few months, then she met someone who pretty much moved in, he was paying her bills for her and moved in properly earlier this year.

She has always worked full time with a salary of around 20k.

She seems to have an awful lot of money, and, as a single parent myself, I couldnt quite work it out. However, I have seen her tax credits renewal form as she didnt understand something and asked me to have a look for her, and shes claiming to be a lone parent, working 16.3 hours a week, earning 12k a year less than she actually is.

She is also claiming housing benefit as a single parent.

So, I have completed the DWP form and sent it off. I couldnt help it, it makes me see red.

But I now feel terrible.

'Evening everyone. Sorry to butt in, but can we just give you a nod in the directions of our Talk Guidelines www.mumsnet.com/info/netiquette? We don't want to zap posts if we can help it as we then get threads with whopping great chunks missing. This is clearly an emotive subject for many, but if we can avoid personal attacks, that would be mucho appreciated.
Thanks
