Part 7
Paying your landlord
This section only applies to tenants of registered social landlords,
to tenants of charities or voluntary organisations who provide
care, support or supervision, or to tenants of hostels.
We will normally pay your Housing Benefit to you unless you ask us to
pay your landlord. In some circumstances we will be unable to pay
your landlord simply because you request it and we may have to ask
you for more information before deciding whom to pay.
Before we can pay your landlord we may need to ask for bank details if
we do not already have them.

Landlord’s name
I agree to accept Housing Benefit payments for the tenant named in this form. I
understand that by law:
I must tell you straight away if I find out about any changes in the tenant’s
i
circumstances or in the circumstances of anyone in their household;
you can stop paying benefit to me if I do not tell you about any changes of
i
circumstances;
I can be prosecuted if I accept Housing Benefit which I know I am not entitled to; and
i
if you pay me too much Housing Benefit for any tenant, I may have to repay it subject to
i
any rights I may have to appeal the overpayment decision. You can take the amount of
overpaid benefit from the benefit I get for any of my tenants. This will not affect their
rent.
