I would appreciate some advice on behalf of my son. He lived in a flat with three other people and all of them were on job seekers allowance at the time. They had problems with the landlord - long story that involved environmental health and the fire department as the accomodation was not fit / safe and the landlord had to spend money on rubbish removal, new roof, fire escape etc. My son and his other flat mates went to the local authority and completed an application for housing benefit - in fact they done it twice as they lost the first application. I'm not sure of the finer details but the landlord didn't issue them with a tenancy agreement or give my son a receipt for the deposit - I know he paid it as I was with him and I offered to pay by cheque but he insisted on cash. After several month of poor living conditions my son moved in with me and being a law abiding citizen I informed to council as I no longer qualified for single occ allowance. I found out two months ago that my son had been sent letters from ballifs etc. I typed out a letter for him to send to the council asking them to review their records as he was on JSA and therefore not liable to council tax charges. All went quiet and I had assumed they had realised their error and dropped the case. Yesterday he receives and letter "warning of committal to prison or bankrupty" I'm distraught and don't know what to do. My son unfortunatley as is typical with many young people today is not unduly stressed over this. What can I do to resolve this situation? Thank you for any advice. J
