Fair deal assement

RookieRick

Hi,

I used the online calculator for the assesment of money we owe for my mum for the fair deal scheme. However the calculator assumes that the same amount should be paid for the first three years (I realise it reduces in year 4 when her house is not taken into account).

Considering the money to pay it will be coming from her savings account, her cash assets will drop significantly every year. Wouldn't this mean the amount she pays reduces every year? Is it possible to get reassessed every year?

Thanks for any advice!

In the grand scheme of things: I'd say yes. Fair Deal is strange but when you consider that the Apple Tax could be used to help cushion people like your mom, you can see now why she's paying such an eye watering amount.
