RE: overpayment recovery from a schedule
Tue 18-Oct-05 10:47 AM |
If they want to deduct from the schedule, they must comply with all of para 14 of Sch 6, including sub para (1)(f), (the fact of the overpayment and the amount of the deduction) and sub para 2 (the person on whose behalf the recoverable overpayment was paid and claimant A, the person whose rent allowance the amount was deducted)
If an overpayment of £5.5k is being recovered, there will be a number of claimant A's to be identified.
Recovery from the schedule is surely more expensive than sending a bill
