Incorrect statement on migration

Hi Lesleyb

I'm sorry that you are in this position. Going to the job centre is unlikely to make any difference to the speed in which they sort this out - but that doesn't mean you shouldn't try.

Transitional protection payments are sorted by a different department and lots of people are finding that their payment is added within a couple of weeks.

Many people have had issues with housing benefit and have found themselves going into arrears. That obviously doesn't help you - but unfortunately you are not alone in dealing with this issue.
