Help with interview under caution.

[firehazzard]

I have been asked by dwp to attend an interview under caution for failure to declare capital. my name is on a property, land registry deed and mortgage that i hold in trust, im the trustee. i have no claim to the property and i do not live there, i am not liable for any monies in relation to the house. i also got out a loan a couple of years ago for someone else, the loan is in my name but they pay it back, the full amount of the loan was paid straight into their account and i never had any of the loan money nor do i gain financially or otherwise for either of these and i have a copy of the trust deed and bank letters to confirm this money was paid into this persons account. I was on income support and housing and council tax benefit. Am i in trouble??????? please help im so worried.

From what you say, I don't think you've done anything wrong but you will need to explain it all in detail, backed up with your papers and (if necessary) evidence from the other people involved.

It would be best for you to go to the interview with a representative. If you can do so, find a solicitors firm that deals with this sort of issue on legal aid (as you are on benefits you should be entitled to that). It probably means finding a firm with a legal aid franchise for welfare benefits work, or possibly for criminal work. You could start with your local CAB as, if they can't help you themselves, they may know of such firms.
