Please note, the following tables provide a GUIDE as to whether you may be entitled to Housing Benefit and Council Tax Benefit based on your current circumstances.
The actual type of income or benefit that you receive may mean that you are able to receive more income than the amounts shown and still receive benefit as in some cases part of your income and some benefits are disregarded in the calculation.
Some benefits that you receive, as well as being disregarded, may also contribute to you to qualifying for more benefit therefore it was always best to check your actual entitlement:

Contact us by selecting the following link: Benefit Enquiries. There are two different guides, one which illustrates Council Tax Benefit entitlement information along with Housing Benefit entitlement information for anyone who pays rent to a Housing Company or a Registered Social Landlord.
The second guide provides entitlement information for tenants who pay rent to a Private Rented Landlord.
