Request
Please can I have a copy of the Income support rates and allowances for rental properties for example 1 bed, 2 bed and 3 bed?
I see on your website they say October 2019. This is not updated to show current Allowances for year 2021. When will you also be updating the Gov.je Social page.
Response
This information is available online at the following link:
How your Income Support benefit is made up (gov.je)
The rates were last increased in Oct 2019, so the website is correct as of the date of this Freedom of Information request.
