Section 1 is entitled What do I need to do now I have been granted status…

For a lot of folks eg Refugees that means they have to leave their NASS accommodation.

Yet there is a complete absence of useful housing or homelessness advice.

I know it is a DWP document, but after all they are administering Housing costs under UC…........

Maybe I am missing something?
