Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what changes she has made to the qualifying period for support for mortgage interest in response to the covid-19 outbreak; and if she will make a statement.
The Department has no plans to amend the qualifying period for Support for Mortgage Interest.
Home owners experiencing difficulties with mortgage repayments because of COVID-19 should contact their lender as soon as possible to discuss what support might be available.
