Income Related Rent Subsidy : Contents
Decreases to the rent for clients paying market rent
Where a decrease to the market rent rate results in a market rent rate that is lower than the rent currently being paid by client and it is also lower than a rate of Income Related Rent that has been calculated in the last 52 weeks, a review of the rate of Income Related Rent is to be completed.
Where a rate of Income Related Rent has not been calculated in the last 52 weeks the client may need to request that a review of the rate of Income Related Rent be completed.
The decrease to the rent would be applied to the earliest possible rent charge date by the housing provider.
Note clients in this situation do not need to have an assessment for eligibility completed.
