For someone recieving means-tested benefits, an injury claim settlement has to be reported as a change in circumstances. A neighbour is expecting to recieve a personal injury claim settlement of slightly over 7,000 and was advised she must report it but will be entitled a 52-week exemption period in which the amount cannot be counted for purposes of means-tested benfits, so that if in that time she spends naturally and then is left with less than 6,000 pounds it won't affect her benefits. However, she is wondering if she has some overpayment of housing benefit, does the 52-week expemption apply to that as well?
