How Your Housing Benefit Has Been Worked Out for the period
From 12/08/2013 your Housing Benefit will be £86.84 each week.
Your maximum housing benefit is £86.84. This amount has not changed since 08/07/2013. Please look at that
period for full details of how your maximum benefit has been worked out.
Your Total Weekly Housing Benefit
Since you are receiving Employment and Support Allowance (income related), you are entitled to the maximum
Housing Benefit of £86.84 each week.
How Your Council Tax Support Has Been Worked Out
Based on your circumstances I have decided to assess your claim using the Working Age scheme.
From 08/07/2013 to 11/08/2013, your council tax support is £12.64 each week.
The maximum council tax support you could get
Your council tax liability for the year is £818.62 which for this period is £15.70 each week.
The maximum council tax support you could get is therefore £15.70 each week. This figure is used when
working out 'your total weekly council tax support'.
Your Total Weekly Income
The amount of money you have coming in each week has been worked out as follows:
Total Weekly Income £0.00
Your Total Savings
The Working Age scheme sets the amounts added to your weekly income if you have savings. If you have
savings and capital over £6,000.00, an amount of £1.00 must be added to your weekly income for each
additional £250.00, or part of £250.00 you have.
You have told me that you have no savings or capital, so I have added nothing to your weekly income. If you get
savings credit in your pension credit, your savings have already been taken into account by the Pension Service
and will not be shown on this letter.
Your applicable amount
Your applicable amount is made up of the following allowances and premiums:
Single claimant 25 or over £71.70
Total Applicable Amount £71.70
Your Total Weekly Council Tax Support
As your total weekly income of £0.00 is the same as or less than your 'applicable amount' of £71.70,1 can pay
you your maximum council tax support of £15.70 each week.
A reduction of the maximum council tax support of £15.70 that you could get each week must be reduced by
£3.06, to £12.64.
