The point is: I have never been notified of any suspension, let alone an ending. I just keep reading everywhere that :'the claimant must be notified of a decision and why it has been taken'. And I haven't. For some odd reasons I am imagining a court judge saying: 'therefore the claim has never been fully closed'. Just an odd thing that I have been thinking, but I wonder if it could be true.
It is a worthy argument but does rely on your being able to show that the DWP have not notified you, your not receiving a letter is not the same as their not sending one.

Yet before I won my appeal, the local council wrote to me and mentioned the 3months thing. It looks like a mystery. Best thing to do would be phoning Shelter UK, but I am totally averse to the phone.

I have had another look and it appears that this may be operational policy by a Local Authority, there appears to be no legal limit on time that HB can be paid due to nil income.
Unfortunately HB is not a benefit that we deal with on the forum we are limited on additional advice I can give.
