How will Local Housing Allowance be paid?
How will Local Housing Allowance be paid?
In most cases we will pay Local Housing Allowance directly to you. You cannot choose to have your Local Housing Allowance paid directly to your landlord. If your landlord agrees to reduce the rent to the Local Housing Allowance rate, we may pay your rent direct to him by BACS.
In some exceptional cases we may decide to pay your Local Housing Allowance directly to your landlord. We have to consider your individual circumstances and be satisfied that you are unable to manage your finances. Our safeguard policy sets out the rules for when we may pay your Local Housing Allowance directly to your landlord.
