This may mean that your payments of Incapacity benefit for example may not increase for a couple of weeks but we have to amend your claim from 1st April
Could you clarify which scenario is correct please, 'can' does not mean the same as 'have to'.Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants - Michael Pollan

The LHA rate increases every month??
Because ive checked my council's website and the LHA website a few times over the last few months, but my area's rate has remained the same.
No, it's reviewed every month, it can increase or decrease.Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants - Michael Pollan

it will only change on your 12 month anniversary. or if you have a break of a week in your claim.
it might not actually change at all.0 -

Ah thanks.
Ive looked and the rate for the time i claimed was £360 per week.
However its now only £355 per week.
(Ive just looked at bank account and ive still been getting the £360 rate)
But so when its the 12months anniversary of my claim will they try 'backdating it', and so giving me a huge bill of £5 x those 52 weeks?? :huh::huh:0
