If I don’t repay an overpayment of Child Benefit, can the CB Office stop my husband’s Incapacity Benefit?

If I don't repay an overpayment of Child Benefit as I've been asked, and I can't manage to get the decision changed, are the Child Benefit office able to take the money out of my husband's benefits - Incapacity Benefit (for himself only), Housing Benefit and Council Tax Benefit?

Incapacity benefit help pls pls pls?

My benefit has been stopped as I recently attended a medical and scored 6 points, u need 10 points to pass. Im going to appeal against this as Im in no fit state to work. suffer from severe depression and anexity. What do I say when I appeal and how does it all work? I have a 15 month old and I didnt tell them the whole truth as Im afraid they would take my son away and call me a bad parent, I do put things off that are important, avoid going out, and I always read too much into things this really messes my head up. I would rather be on my own and am very nervous. I put a front on as I always hide things away and bottle things up. I get help from my partners mam alot. I cry everyday and everyday feels the same. so basically I was thinking of my son, I made out things were better bcause I was afraid of losing him. what do I do? they are sending me a form GL24. Any help or advice pls? If they decline what can I do next? I wont be able to support myself and child. My partner has a job but
it pays pennies and once rent is paid and the rest we dont have any ££. This is gonna make me worse as Im gonna worry and get stressed even more. I have thought about suicide and also self harmed myself a few times. x
I would love to go to work! thanx 4 the commet u have upset me a lot. Ive had 5 deaths in 10 months (2 of my grans) a baby, partner lost job twice my 2nd couisn is 5 and has leukimia and has months to live. Oh and our prev lanlord kicked us out as she was a cow!! i
