Hi and welcome to the community
Each council their own eligibility criteria so hard to advise sorry -
Hello and thanks.

I wouldn’t expect it to. Just inform your local council benefits team.Information I post is for England unless otherwise stated. Rules may be different in other parts of UK.

Cheers, I kinda wouldn't have thought it would either, but hoping someone has had some experience with this as I can't be the only one!!!

Every council can make their own rules for CTR for working age claimants so it’s difficult to provide definite adviceInformation I post is for England unless otherwise stated. Rules may be different in other parts of UK.
