LHA rate for shared housing, under 35 on PIP

sky982

Hello,

I just wanted to double check, I am looking to rent a room and am I right in thinking that as I'm on PIP I can get the one bedroom rate instead of the shared rate, even though I'm under 35 and will be house sharing?

Thanks

Your PIP needs to include the daily living part and then you'll be entitled to the 1 bedroom rate.

Hi, does anyone know if I can One Bedroom Rate Local Housing Allowance, for a shared accommodation, if I am over 35 and on severe disability allowance? Can you see it documented anywhere on Council and DWP websites? I only see it on Shelter.

As long as the one bedroom rate isn't higher than your actual rent, yes you can @Anthi_42.
