Rent Arrears

Top

Last revised: 12 March 2008

The Housing Benefit regulations say that if a tenant has rent arrears of eight weeks or more, we must pay you direct (if we are not already doing so), unless we consider it in the tenant’s best interest not to pay Housing Benefit directly to you.

If your tenant owes you eight weeks rent or more you should write to us, so that we can decide what action to take. You should tell us how much the arrears are and what period they cover.
