County council socal care

ceedy · 1st September 2020, 10:42

just going through a financial assessment for my dad, he's been right o nthe borderline, of qualificstion, ie 23250, and since hes been in care and Mum passing away no monies of any amount has been going out and now this puts him just over the limits

.

Having an LPA and with his permission I could give away some cash to the grandkids ( leglally its up to 3k per year per person) to keep the total down a bit ,

but according the Councils finance dept they class that as " deprecation of assests" ?? .

Also they are saying that as My Mum has passed away they consider all the money even i nthe joint accounts to now be his , even though Mums Will specifically leaves all her estate to other people ?.

this bit sounds either dodgy or unfair or illegal ?

whot you reckon ?
