Hi to all,

If i dont want to sign on, and i have no income. All except say PIP standard rates for both components. Will i be able to claim Housing Benefit.?

I did read on here a while back about claiming if you have zero income?

Cheers

Mr F

It is possible to make a zero income claim for Housing Benefit, you will need to contact your Local Authority, there are forms you will need to complete and they will make a Decision on whether your request is justified.

Mr F

If you are not receiving an income replacement benefit such as ESA, JSA or IS then you will not be receiving NI Credits which count towards a full State Pension.
