Hi can anyone offer me assistance. Myself and wife took out a joint mortgage on our ex council house a year ago. Now after 12 years of marriage and with two young children she has told me that she dsnt care for me anymore and wants me to leave the house but keep paying our mortgage instead of giving her maintenance, I must advise that within the relationship I have done nothing wrong but support my family financially. My wife is insisting that I contact tax credits and child benefit and get her name only on the awards. Can I ask if she has any legal angle to ask me to leave my family home when I have done nothing wrong and also can she insist on me changing the benefit details. Any advice would be appreciated

Hi There,

Legally she has no right to force you out of the family home, but you have to think about the effect on the children if you were to stay.

If you seperate then the credits would get awarded to the resident parent.

Would it be worth attending relate or similar to see if the relationship could be saved?

Hi I've mentioned relate but it's a no, the whole issue is that she has several friends who are very influential and are single parents. I've told her about how financially worse off we would be and this would have an effect on the children, but nothing can change her mind
