Now in its sixth edition, this essential guide will bring you a year's worth of key facts, tables figures and guidance on all types of benefits in one convenient and understandable handbook. This new edition takes account of new benefit rates and regulation changes effective from April 2006, including changes brought about by the Civil Partnership Act 2004, which affected the way same sex couples are treated for all benefits and tax credits, plus changes to tax credits, including the problem of overpayments and recovery from claimants. This is an indispensable quick reference handbook for lawyers, advice workers, housing officers, social workers, health visitors, doctors and community workers.
