Hi there,
Please can anyone clarify this 2 weeks in arrears policy?
When my entitlement to Housing Benefit ended, if it is paid 2 weeks in arrears, surely I am owed the 2 weeks once H/B entitlement ends. I am sure this is what has happened in the past.
However, my local Council are being extremely "vague" about it, saying "once entitlement ends so do payments."
Therefore, I would like to know exactly what this "2 weeks in arrears policy means" as they are saying that they do not owe me 2 weeks, however, when I began the claim and was entitled and the Council pay 2 weeks in arrears, surely I would receive that back, or otherwise, it means I have paid for 2 weeks rent at the start of my tenancy, when I was entitled to Housing Benefit.
Clarification on this "2 weeks in arrears housing benefit policy" would be extremely helpful before I appeal.
Thank You Kindly
S. Clegg
