Hello everybody. Can anyone tell me the allowance for work meals etc.
To cut a long story short my wife is now working & having to pay 50% of her earnings into her IVA. Just wondered if she would be able to offset any of this against expenses etc.
Keep smiling. It could be worse.

I would have thought additional travel, but meals could be from the original budget e.g. sandwiches taken from home?

Under CCCS guidelines it is £31 for a single person and £35 for a married couple. They obviously think that two people can eat for almost the same as one!
