CCGs and capital
Thu 20-Jan-05 03:39 PM

Are arrears of benefits disregarded for 52 weeks after they are paid in the calculation of a CCG applicant's income?

According to the Social Fund Guide, capital is calculated in accordance with IS rules

That is, if it's disregarded under Schedule 10 of the IS gen regs, it's disregarded. And arrears of benefits are, of course.
