awkward question.. was created by lauren

I am considering doing a mandatory reconsideration. I believe I could be award points for managing money as I have had to enter into a payment arrangement due to out of control spending down to a mental health issue long story... I am scared to put this in the mr as they might accuse me of applying for support because of money issues.My illnesses have meant I cant bring as much money in.Catch 22.

Can any one advise whether i should include this in the mr and what the pit falls my be?

Thanks

Hi Lauren

They will not accuse you of applying for support due to money issues. What you need to show is that your mental health issues have had a detrimental and ongoing impact on your ability to manage money. Look at the guide and the advice in there for answering this question. In my view, there are no pitfalls in you questioning why you did not score for this question. Make sure that you have looked at the PA4 (Assessment report) to see if the assessor commented on this particular question.
