I wonder if you could advise. I am awaiting confirmation that i will be receiving income related ESA. Currently on contribution support group ESA. A family member is currently paying £460 per month towards our mortgage which is in arrears. Do i need to inform the DWP that this amount is being paid each month. I am not sure how to word the letter if i have to. I would be grateful for any advice.
Your relative should pay the money directly to the mortgage company. I cannot see why they should not be able to do this. Then it would not fall within the remit of the DWP to investigate.
