Need Housing Benefit Reg
Mon 01-Oct-07 09:54 AM

Hi everyone

I'm having a brain meltdown (after a heavy weekend)

Can anyone please point me in the right direction for the reg concerning the claimant still has a month to hand in the info attached with a letter after a nil qualify letter has been sent.

many thanks

There isn’t one that I know of.

I suspect you are thinking of the 1 month to appeal. Where the evidence is provided as part of the appeal most LAs, and if not most tribunals, will normally re-instate the claim.

Alternativly, you may be thinking of the month a claimant has to provide evidence after a claim has been suspended.

Are you thinking of the time allowed to complete a claim? If more info is needed the claimant has one month (or as much as is reasonable) to provide it and complete the claim. If not the claim becomes defective.
