I don't know if anyone can help me with this, but I thought I'd ask anyway!
As you may or may not remember, I had a pay rise back in May. Clarke Willmott 'forgot' to tell the OR, and due to me moving house I have only just returned the IPOQ with my new figures. My first question is, how long does it normally take for the OR to reassess an IPA?
Secondly (and this is the bit that's worrying me!), when they reassess the IPA what are the chances of them disallowing something that they allowed originally?
Thirdly, the pay rise I received was for approx. £65 a month. I have increased some of my expenditure (petrol for example - it's gone up by 14p a litre since I did my I & E in March) as the cost of living seems to have rocketed. I'm worried that they will disallow the increases and increase the IPA as I would be struggling. Is this likely to happen?
I know that no-one can give me a definite answer, but I'm really worried about this so any advice would be good. I'm worried that the letter from the OR will drop onto the doormat on Christmas Eve so that I can worry about it until the New Year!
Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is the present - a gift to make the most of.
