Hi everyone its been quite some time since I last posted! so I hope I am doing this correctly and replying to my topic to keep all my post together. I hope everyone is well and staying safe
It hasn't been a great time for me sadly my cancer returned just before Christmas and I needed a big operation to remove it all but fingers crossed I will get the all clear will find out t/ow. I have a couple of questions if that's ok.
Firstly I was in hospital for 10 days and I have just realised I didn't inform DWP should I have told them will this affect my benefits I have been worrying about it which isn't helping my recovery.
My second question is if someone has more than £16,000 In savings I know that they don't qualify for benefits. If they used some of the savings for daily living costs etc and this meant that they no longer had £16,000 in savings would this mean they could qualify and apply for benefits?
Thanks everyone for your help and advice
