    For HB £16,000.

    CTB has been abolished and replaced with local schemes administered by each local authority. The savings limit is now set by your local council so you will have to check their website for details.
    These are my own views and you should seek advice from your local Benefits Department or CAB.

    And
    let your council know about why other benefits are ending, and complete a Nil Income form with them.
