Hi, I did write a previous post about my situation so sorry to post again but just wanted to ask a specific question on housing benefit.
Basically, my partner is leaving in the new year when he has found somewhere to live and I will need to claim housing benefit.
I have our tenancy agreement but it has both our names on it. Will the council accept this as proof of rent or will it need to be in my name only? At the moment I am unsure if my landlord will accept housing benefit and I'm a bit worried to ask.
I have read through the tenancy agreement, which was written by the agency and all it says is 'you must tell us if you start to claim housing benefit '. However we don't go through the agency anymore, just deal directly with the landlord.
Any advice appreciated.
