Hi,posting for a friend whos husband has been on illness benefit for year and half,shes been told after a recent review that it will expire in 6mths. Husband had massive heart attack and many complications after and although he feels hes ready for work his gp,consultant,ot and phychologist feel he needs more time. He suffers from bad fatique and depression since aswell. Shes not sure what payment to apply for as in Invalidity or Disability as shes not sure quite when hel get the go ahead for work. They have 2 young kids and mortgage and have used all their savings paying the mortgage till now on illness benefit and shes afraid shel end up with no payment in 6mths? Any advice welcomed as neither have claimed welfare before and hes worked same job for 25yrs. Thks
