Hey everyone,
I currently live in a 2 bed flat with my boyfriend, and we have a joint-claim for JSA.
Because of the Bedroom Tax coming in April 2013, I've applied to downgrade my property to a 1 bed through Selectmove.co.uk.
What I need to know is, if I'm offered a new flat, will I be able to receive help from DWP with moving expenses, etc? I cannot take any of my carpets with me, as they are glued down (that's Carpetright for you) and I had to skimp and save for months in order to buy them. Would I be able to claim for these also?
Many thanks in advance
