    OverlyAnxious I dont think I would be hitting 16k, at the 6k threshold my council now fully cut off council tax support without tapering, so I think with the UC deductions as well, I would level off before then, especially if LCWRA cuts happen.

    My council cut off CTR at £10k. I'm also getting around £100 a month capital deduction on UC. But even with those, I'm still getting enough excess to put me over £16k by the autumn unless my situation changes dramatically in the meantime. (Or changes to LCWRA or PIP happen, or UC cancel my claim because I can't manage a personal visit for bank statements.)

    If I can move before then, then it should level off and reduce the capital by spending on furniture and white goods etc. But currently I'm having to plan as if I'm still in this flat for the forseeable future.
