Thanks for the replies girls. I was chatting with her this morning and she was hoping to be eligible for the payments so she could save to move out asap. Her DH well I guess almost XDH wants to do a few more things around the house before they sell it. I told her what you guys said and she is thinking maybe she might just move in for her Mum and then save. Her Mums place is tiny but she'd rather that than a full on investigation, as things are hard enough for her right now. She is going to give them a call today I think, so fingers crossed!

Thanks again.
