Yes - but with rent arrears you could still be liable for eviction as being in arrears is a breach of the tenancy agreement.
You would need to make these priority debts to be repaid but if these represent the majority of what you owe seek specialised help.

In addition the overpayment of housing benefit can be reclaimed from future entitlements and may not be included at all if there was non disclosure. It is not very straightforward so speak with an insolvency firm.

Hi Michael, I know this is an old thread but I’ve been doing a search to look for help with my situation and your comment came up. What do you mean by non disclosure? Do you have any more information about this?

Michael has not posted for a while now. Non disclosure means if it was not mentioned at the time as far as I am aware.
