How far back from the time of financial assessment is potential Deprivation of Assets considered?
Should my OH need Residental Care he will be self-funding.
There is work that needs to be done to our home.
If we were to get the work done to help ensure safety, keep a decent standard of decorative order, replace ageing white goods, beds and furniture, and maintain the integrity of the building, how long before that cost is not considered DoA? Some of this work would be necessary to keep the house in a saleable condition.
We would need to use his savings to fund the work.
Are the DoA rules an ever-changing thing? What's the best reference to the facts on this? I really don't want to get started on the slippery slope toward penury through ignorance.
