This volume in the Help with Housing Costs series covers the rules for housing benefit for rent payments across the United Kingdom. It is designed to complement volume 1 which covers universal credit, council tax and rate rebates and certain matters common to housing benefit and universal credit, including appeal tribunals and the rules about migrants and recent arrivals. Building on the strong reputation of its predecessor - Guide to Housing Benefit - for clear, impartial and accurate advice, it is designed for use by local councils, social landlords, advisers, tribunal members, housing professionals and tenants.
