Ending your tenancy if you are in receipt of Universal Credit
If you are in receipt of Universal credit and are thinking of ending your tenancy, before submitting your termination notice, please contact your Rent Officer on 01204 328000 to discuss your tenancy end date.
The tenancy end date will affect the amount of Housing Costs you get in your last month, so its really important to discuss this with us before ending your tenancy as you may not receive all your Housing Costs in the last month of your tenancy.
