Unsure how much money I get in benefits.

williewonder

I have an appointee at social services so I don't know exactly how much money I get. I get the highest rate ESA in support group as well as SDP. How much is that a month I'm getting?

I also get hight rate for both PIPs. How much is that?

I live in supported living as well and my rent is £804 every 4/week month. This is paid in full by housing benefit (I know this because I do get them letters) My appointee gets all benefit letters and he won't tell me how much money I get a month in benefits.

this is the first time I asked this question.

I didn't release how much money I get. £1401 a 4/week month. I was putting on credit forms around £1000 a month. My outgoings are £140 a month for utilities. Thats my only outgoings excluding food. I don't have to pay anything towards my support package as I get 117 aftercare.

Although you did post 18 months ago about how you get ‘too much’ In benefits.

Seems extraordinary that an appointee will not provide information about your finances to you.

I thought I got too much when I thought it was under £1000 a month. My only outgoing excluding food is £140 a month for utilities. I had an assessment by a psychologist and she deemed I lack capacity with finances so thats why I have an appointee and he's never told me how much money I get in benefits and I have asked him. He tells me how much money I have saved bit the the amounts and I get no letters either.

Poppy 12345.  Thank you for posting the proposed rates and I have scrolled through them. I could not find Child Tax Credits or new style contribution based (N.I credits) rates - I think I was a bit lost with all the different ones. If they are not there does that mean they are not increasing? Thank you for your help.
