    Well according to the housing benefit website i was on last night, says we would get £76 a week help. I put in both our incomes.
    Am going private, much easier. We're guna save for the deposit and such like, but a 2/3 bedroom house is looking at around £550 a month.
    Oh and also, should of mentioned, i wont be going back to work full time after maternity leave as i'll be starting uni. Does that factor into it?

    :D xx

    ...did you maybe put in weekly wage under monthly - you would get that amount of LHA if your total household income is £450 per month
