Yes, my son's money stops after 4 weeks (dated from the date of their letter, not the date we got it of course). Ditto free car tax, so I'll have to put a SORN on the car rather than pay for all of February instead of the last week only. And the Carers Allowance stops too of course. £8 too much in private pensions means no Income Support, full rent and poll tax. So we lose £62.10 in Carers Allowance but have to pay £392 in rent and poll tax per month. A £700+ pa hole in our finances all told.
