The housing benefit is a means-tested benefit provided to eligible individuals who need help with their housing expenses. Regardless of whether you are off work temporarily due to illness or injury, you may still qualify for housing benefit based on your income, savings, and personal circumstances.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s important to note that housing benefit is gradually being replaced by Universal Credit, a new benefit system that combines six existing benefits, including housing benefit. If you live in a Universal Credit full service area, you will need to apply for Universal Credit instead of housing benefit. However, those living in areas where Universal Credit has not yet been rolled out can still apply for housing benefit.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Related_FAQs\"><\/span>Related FAQs:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Can_I_claim_housing_benefit_if_I_am_self-employed_and_on_SSP\"><\/span>1.
