Hello, I am going to rent out a bedroom in my own house, I and my son live here. I know the person very well I want to rent to but he is on income support. My question is can he receive housing benefit if he is a lodger - I have had conflicting advice from the local council? Thanks for any feedback it would be appreciated.
