How Your Housing Benefit Has Been Worked Out for the period
From 25/11/2013 your Housing Benefit will be £86.84 each week.
The rent you are charged each week is £92.49.
Housing Benefit cannot pay for some service charges that are included in your rent. The rent you pay has to be
reduced by the amount of these service charges. These amounts are shown below:
Actual amount for Ineligible Water £5.65
Total deductions for services £5.65
The amount of rent after deducting these charges is called your maximum eligible rent. Your rent of £92.49 must
be reduced by £5.65, to £86.84 each week. This is your maximum eligible rent.
The maximum Housing Benefit you can get is £86.84 each week. This figure is used when working out 'your
total weekly Housing Benefit'.
