Housing rent privately... £1250... this is maximum LHA for a 3 bed (Now in 2 bed due to rent arrears and landlord sold)

Are you aware of the Entitledto and Turn2Us calculators?

There's a lot of factors making everyone's amount pretty unique.

Standard Allowance £400.14
Housing Element £1250.00
Child Element £631.81

Total before Deductions £2281.95

Total UC before Deductions, less Deduction for Wage = £1794.00

Call CAB if you are struggling to use the online calculator OP.
