If someone is on ESA (Income related) and Housing Benefit/Council Tax Payment, how much can they inherit before having to inform the various departments? What sum will start to affect ESA and HB levels? And what sum will completely cut all benefits off?

 

Thanks :)

£6k will have an effect and will get a tarrif income, anything over £16k will nil your claim.

 

Any changes need to be reported, so even if you only inherit £2k safest bet is to notify relevant agency.

Yes, declare everything. However, note that if an amount between £6k and £16k reduces the amount of ESA you can claim, that same money will not also affect your HB.

The idea that all politicians lie is music to the ears of the most egregious liars.
