1st April 2013 - Changes to Housing Benefit

The Government introduced a new Bedroom Tax as from 1st April. This means a cut to your Housing Benefit if you are under-occupying your home. There will also be a new Benefit Cap which limits the amount of benefit you may receive. Further changes are due later in the year.
