Reg 7(1)(f) states not eligble for HB if his or her l/lord is a trustee of a trust of which claimants child is a beneficiary – does this apply to the following scenario:
I have a claim where l/lord is deceased and claimant is an executor of the estate but not a beneficiary.
Her daughter who no longer lives with her is also an executor and a beneficiary
Her son who will be 16 in DEC 06 is the other beneficiary.
The solicitors confirmed the estate has considerable debts and only when the administration of the estate is concluded will the assets be distributed -one half to the daughter and one half to be held in trust for the son.
Can anyone clarify if she is eligible or if they have come across anything similar
Thanks in advance
Sarah
