Hi
I have worked for benefits for over 10 years and can tell you that with just this information it is imposible to tell if this would qualify you and it all depends on number of children in the house, savings tax credits, child benefit, amount of rent she is liable for.
Your best bet is to call you local council and ask them for a calculation, they can then tell you if you are likely to qualify or not, or just put in a claim anyway, the worst they can do is say no!!

u will get help with rent and council tax if ur in receipt of working tax credit, to check if ur eligible go to the DWP website, on tax credit section theres a calculator u can use to check if ur entitled.

Don't know really, but if your ex calls the housing benefit dept. at your local council, they will send her the forms to fill in for Rent and Council Tax.
