Thanks for that.
There not disabled.
They have a live in adult placement that gives them over £300 weekly from the local Social Services, if we can convince the DWP that it is only temporary she will still get IS.
Letter to the Social Services from the DWP and its looking unlikely the temporary will apply.
It looks like the decision will be not entitled to IS as they have had the adult over 4 years with no outlook for them to be moved on, although the ideal long term outcome is to leave and get a tenancy.
The IS is the better option as they have rent and council tax to pay so IS would passport them, School meals, prescriptions etc.
In all honesty I feel it will be no end of hassle to claim WTC althugh she is due it.
