income support letter

hi everyone and happy new year
just wondering if anyone knows what it means on a letter i recieved from income support
i recently moved address ,rang and told them
the letter says change of circumstances does not affect the amount of is we pay you

but then says however there may be future changes in your entitlement
this may be because of future changes you have told us about ,the uprating of benefit or changes in deductions from your benefit?

does anyone know what that means
thanks very much in advance for any replies

    "...change of circs..." phrase tends to be a standard one in letters even if there's not been a change !! However in your case it's probalby because you've moved.

    the phrase "...may be a further change..." is exactly that - possible uprating (in April) or any changes which mean an increase or decrease in your money ie savings, earnings, social fund loans, deductions for council tax arrears, rent, utitilites etc.
    I'll get you, my pretty, and your little dog too!
