Housing benefit claiimz was created by battyboo
Hi I wonder if you could help.desperately need advice urgently.
Circumstances
Disabled adult son, DLA highest rates
Parent carer in receipt of carers allowance, I ncome support
Overnight support worker needs a bedroom
1.Moving too private rented property, unsure whether to ask for a joint tenancy.
Rent is 575pcm
2.. Indications from the council say we are entitled to 1 bed rate each, in total 346.00 per month
Can any of you benefit advisers fathom this out., I thought we would be entitled to 3 bed rate.?
Thank you very much In. Advance

Hi Lisa
Housing Benefit is outside of the benefits that we cover on the forum and in this case you need to ask specialist housing advisors. I would seek advice from Shelter england.shelter.org.uk/ - telephone number: 0808 800 4444 or try and clarify with your local council.

Hi Lisa
You will need to get a letter from your son's doctor stating that he requires overnight support.
