Further to my previous posting the same LA has also adopted this "policy".
Claimant notifies that non-dep has vacated and gives leaving date and forwarding address.
LA then writes to the CTAX payer of the forwarding address asking them to sign a delcaration that the non-dep is now resident with them and return the declaration within 7 days.
If the CTAX payer never returns this declaration the non-dep charge remains on the claim.
If the CTAX payer returns the declaration later than the 7 day deadline the non-dep charge is only removed from the Monday following the date of receipt of the declaration, even though the claimant may have notified of the change of circs within the one calendar month time limit.
This is obviously challengable but I'm not sure which route to take, JR or normal appeals process?
