What does DSS stand for?

In Property / flat share ads, they often say, along with No Smoking, No Pets, etc, 'No DSS' - what does this mean?

heldigfis

It means that they do not want people who are on benefits.

DSS is an abreviation for DHSS - which stands for department of Health and Social Services. ...As far as I know.

Landlords don't want anyone who is relying on Department Social Services for housing benefit (to pay the rent) and income.

In other words if you don't have a job, forget it.

Department for Simpletons and Scroungers. If you belong in this category, landlords dont want you in their property. They think you will use it as a drugs den or something and wreck the place.
