Got a 19 yrs old lone parent, currently on ssp, tax credit still in payment as well as childcare cost. She has been assessed for hb & ctb but it appears the Local Authority are refusing to disregard the amount of childcare costs that she is still liable to pay when assessing her income, are they correct in doing so, if so under what regs?
I am right is assuming that the lone parent disregard still applies for hb & ctb because she is not on IS?
