Rent allowance cheque never came this month. Why??

Just wondering if anyone knows if your normally informed if your rent allowance is being stopped??

It normally comes in the post the last banking day if each month, but mine never arrived last Friday.

I received no letter or info from the community welfare office.

Would you normally be informed if your rent allowance was being stopped for some reason?

I was re-assed a while ago and my amount was reduced by a small amount due to taking up part-time work. (20 hours a week) which I was then intitled to Family income supplement also.

I applied for F.I.S about 2 months ago, but due to the back log it hasnt be processed yet.

Has anyone had rent allowance stopped due to being entitled to F.I.S?

It make no sense to stop rent allowance because of F.I.S because F.I.S is only paid to low income familes.

My income amount is very low weekly, well with in the rent allowance income limits.

Any ideas?
Would I not have even been sent to a letter letting me know it was being stopped if there was a problem?

Only way to know is to go to your CWO and ask what the delay is. Know someone who received the receipt (it's paid into the landlords account directly) today.
