Hi all,
Me & my two house-mates are moving house soon, as one is starting Uni in september.
All single and under 35.
Anyway, does anyone know, if we would get the shared room rate each for LHA, or 3 bed rate? All on Jsa income based, no other income.
I ask this, as currently, we are getting £425 a month, but when i checked the online calculatorto see how much the rate we would get would be it said £390, as i'm living here, i know it's not £390, i also know they haven't made a mistake as i've already asked about it.
So, as we're looking for a new place, i need to make sure it's in the price range, but as the moneys we get on housing benefit for this house, aren't the same as the online benefits calculator says we should be getting (we're getting more) i thought i'd ask here and see if anyone knew.
