#Renting to a close #family member and claiming #HousingBenefit is neither illegal nor immoral yet both #councils and #DWP routinely deny such claims leaving vulnerable adults with no options https://t.co/RDBEQoMY76

Young Down syndrome claimant loses large part of #UniversalCredit after securing a therapeutic job where her earnings were taxed at 55% or, in other words for every £1 earned, 55p was taken off her UC entitlement https://t.co/MLMygYQ3U3

#DWP is failing in its statutory duty to issue legally compliant benefit decision letters and this, in turn, impedes and frustrates the ability of tenants to challenge poor decisions and pursue appeals to the Tribunal. https://t.co/6fiyo0deR5
Errors made by #DWP take months to resolve despite being blatantly wrong. Why? The staff making decisions are poorly trained and the people who "review" are invariably working in "complaints" when the issues relate to "entitlement" with rights of appeal https://t.co/QfH2kV24GZ

Interesting article on #Landlordzone which should interest many #landlords that have lost many £000s through delinquent #tenants misrepresenting their position to DWP and its failure to investigate and act on the misuse that could have been prevented. https://t.co/PtGbEmh71R
#DWP must stop its malpractice of denying #landlords direct payments when tenants are affected by the #BenefitsCap. Doing so exposes the tenant & family to the process of recovery and potential eviction https://t.co/7tywpHKts2
