You notify the housing allowance authority immediately if 


  • Your total income has increased by more than 15 percent,
  • your rent or burden for residential property (excluding heating costs) has decreased by more than 15 percent, or
  • the number of household members has decreased.

If your total income is reduced because there are fewer members in your household to consider, this may also be a reason to change your housing allowance.
