My private landlord is increasing the rent for the next tenancy agreement. My original tenancy started 20 years ago in this flat. I am on IR-ESA and HB.
Under legislation as it stands to date, will this change of circumstances mean my council will try to force me onto UC from IR-ESA & HB? A new tenancy is only when you move into a new flat, correct?
Providing you stay within the same local authority a rent increase will not trigger a change of circumstances. If you have any issues concerning private rents then contact Shelter Advice line: 0808 800 4444
