Hi mods,

Is it possible to lose entitlement to full housing benefit if guaranteed pension credit inclusive of SDP is ceased after a hypothetical scenario allied to say savings that way far exceed the legal limit allowed. Would the SDP also cease altogether too ?. It's tax free cash isas/current A/C

Currently get PC as noted above..since end of 2023
I get full state pension
Pip enhanced daily living/standrd mobility
10yr award from July 2023
Very small occupational pension

Sorry for probably cross posting but i have severe Dyspraxia and get really confused!!

It's just that i've had a DWP About your pension credit letter....to check i'm getting the right/correct amount come my birthday. sending me some letter/form or other. No clue why they sent me this...

Hi Dalglish60

To answer your question " Is it possible to lose entitlement to full housing benefit if guaranteed pension credit inclusive of SDP is ceased after a hypothetical scenario allied to say savings that way far exceed the legal limit allowed". Housing Benefit is administered by your local Council but an unqualified answer would be Yes.
As your query is complex I think you should contact a local Welfare Benefits Advice centre for a comprehensive assessment of your situation.
