Housing Benefit overpayments
How Housing Benefit overpayments happen and how you can repay them.
Repay a Housing Benefit overpayment
When we ask you to pay back an overpayment, we will:
- send you an invoice and ask you to repay the amount
- take weekly deductions from your Housing Benefit payments, which will vary depending on your circumstances
You can make a repayment online.
Request lower deductions
If you feel the weekly deductions are causing you extreme hardship, you can contact us to request lowering your deductions.
