A Visit From A Housing Benifit Officer

Posts: 113 Forumite
Two months ago i had to make a new claim for housing benifit i completed and returned the forms
Then a few days ago a Housing benifit officer called to visit me but i was not at home and did not meet the officer .I now have to make another appointment to see this housing officer . My question is why does this person want to meet me where i live and not in a council office ?

Perhaps to check you're not in an undeclared relationship, or that you have a room to yourself? I wouldn't worry too much about it.0

Probably to make sure you do actually live there and your circumstances are as you've claimed.0
