customer compliance office interview for housing benefit

Hi all,

My husband has received a letter inviting him for an interview for a customer compliance office interview for housing benefit.

Can anyone shed any light on this as our circumstances haven’t changed and the letter is addressed to only him and not the both of us?

Don’t know why I worry about things like this? ��

Looking at your previous posts you have had a lot of circumstances changing....

What is your current situation now as regards benefits/husband working etc

To be honest (and I know this isn't particularly helpful, sorry) it could be to do with anything relating to the claim.

As long as the letter doesn't say it is 'an interview under caution' then they will tell you what it is about and what you need to do. Have they asked you to bring any paperwork with you - bank statements etc?

Your OH needs to go to the interview and just be up front with the interviewer and answer any questions they have.

He's been called up because, presumably, the claim is in his name.

Is he still working then?

Did he notify them of his PIP award?

Are either of you claiming ESA or Income Support?

Although the HB is in both your names only one of you would have made the claim so was that your husband?

I did the claim for housing benefit a few years again and he is working part time when he can.

No to income support and esa.

He has to call our housing about pip as he got the letter Saturday and I know we have to let them know within 4 weeks??

Letter for interview was dated the 6th October

I'm assuming they know he's working and he's sending in wage slips?
