    This year the new benefit year begins on April 7th, so the To Do should appear then.

    Hi, I have never had that come up ever, is this new? Usually I just report it when it happens.

    For those living in social Housing there is a To Do that pops up each April as that is when those rents increase.

    This sounds fun, will it be like when I reported change of financial circumstances a sudden demand to the job centre to deliver a paper tenancy? Hope not.

    For those living in social housing, we input our new rent when prompted and then UC verify that with the landlord.
