Can anyone advise me on housing benefit please.
I am a single mum of two starting a nursing degree in sept. I will be living on a NHS busrary and student loan. I'm unsure if this is calculated as income!!
Will I be able to carry on claiming H/B??
Thanks

Regular savers earn 6% interest (HSBC, First Direct, M&S) Loans cost 2.9% per year (Nationwide) = FREE money. 0
