Housing Benefit Award Accuracy

Why we contact you to review your Housing Benefit

The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has asked us to look at your award. This is to make sure you get the right amount of benefit.

  • It is important that you respond to any contact from us within one month. (This will avoid your current benefit from being stopped.)
  • If there are exceptional reasons which could cause a delay, let us know right away.

Note: If your award is stopped, you must claim Universal Credit for help to pay your rent, if:

  • You are working age;
  • and do not live in supported housing.

If you need any help:

If we have asked you to provide any evidence, please email it to: benefits.support@calderdale.gov.uk.
