I have depression, Can I be evicted ?
Your landlord still has to give you two months written notice if she is going to evict you. Not sure about the tenancy agreement; go to the council and show them. You should be getting housing benefit if you are on JSA and they may be able to backdate this for you if you get a GP's letter to say that you /were are unwell and did not understand the tenancy agreement. It may have to be drawn up again. Assuming you are in receipt of Housing benefit, you can have your Housing benefit paid straight to your landlord so that the money does not come to you and you cannot spend it. If you have depression, put in a claim for ESA (done over the phone so go to Job centre and get the number) for sickness and get a sick note from your GP to send off with the ESA form when it arrives so that you do not have to sign on each fortnight etc.. �700.00 seems an awful lot of rent to pay; is there something cheaper around that you can afford to pay the top-up on? Hope all works out ok for you x
