Income support including severe disability premium Dla Child tax credit for my son Housing and council tax ben

I am afraid we cannot provide individual advice, see here .
You really need to speak to your local CAB or Welfare Rights Office, who can sit down with you, with all of the information in front of them, and explain what your options are.
