Hello Peter, thank's for your advice. It seems that after looking through the Benefits Adviser that only one person can claim, and it's in my name only, so hopefully it should be ok! I will be calling in the benefit office every month to take Maritess payslip, because she is working 'as & when' so her salary could be different each month, whilst there I will ask if they can give me something in writing to confirm that my benefit is worked out on my name only. Will let you know when I've found out!
