How do I claim ?


  • To claim Housing Benefit you will need to complete an application form and provide proof of all your income and capital to support your claim

  • Your claim will normally start on the Monday following the date your application form is received by the Benefits Office, although there are exceptions

  • Please remember to answer all the questions and make sure that you sign the declaration on the form 

  • Application forms that are not signed or fully completed will be returned to you for completion, which could delay your claim 

  • Please remember to provide proof of all your income and capital so that your claim can be dealt with as quickly as possible
