    Can anybody help? I have to write a small article for our ‘members’ and I have been asked to find out the exact date in October when the CB is being diregarded. Does anyone know? Can’t find this anywhere.

    I don’t believe that regs implementing the change are available yet – the date may be available after this month’s budget.

    Last October’s analogous change (disregard of child support maintenance) came in a the end of the month – 27th.

    The commitment to an October change was made in the 2008 budget ..

    .. at paragraph 4.17 3rd item.

    ( see also http://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm200708/cmselect/cmtreasy/326/326we03.htm )

    We’ve updated our benefits advice software to highlight cases where there is no current HB/CTB entitlement but, all other things being equal, there would be from October.
