    Hi Ron,
    I don't think your finances will be a problem, but I think your accommodation could be. I don't know exactly what the ECO guidance notes say on the subject, but I would have thought that they would require you to have at least two bedrooms to accommodate a married couple and one child. The guidance notes used by the ECO's are published online somewhere, so I suggest that you google it and see what they say about the subject.

    Iain.

    Guidance on overcrowding
    The Housing Act 1985 contains statutory definitions of overcrowding in "dwelling houses". Dwelling houses covers both privately owned houses and those owned by local authorities. A house is overcrowded if 2 persons of 10 years old or more of opposite sexes (other than husband and wife) have to sleep in the same room, or if the number sleeping in the house exceeds that permitted in the Act.

    The Act specifies the numbers permitted for a given number of rooms or given floor area. For our purposes we adopt the room number yardstick. Account is only taken of rooms with a floor area larger that 50 sq feet and rooms of a type used either as a living-room or bedroom; kitchens or bathrooms etc are not included.

    Using the above noted yardstick, the following table provides guidance as to the acceptable (for our purposes) number of persons occupying a house with a stated number of rooms:

    NO OF ROOMS ..... PERMITTED NO OF PERSONS
    .......... 1 ................................. 2
    .......... 2 ................................. 3
    .......... 3 ................................. 5
    .......... 4 ................................. 7.5
    .......... 5 ............................... 10

    with an additional 2 persons for each room in excess of 5.

    A child under the age of one does not count as a person. A child aged 1 - 10 years will count as only half a person.
