Please be aware that you may no longer be able to make a claim for Housing Benefit, and instead may need to make a claim for Universal Credit. Before completing this form, please ensure that you have read the information in the link below.

What is Universal Credit and how do I apply?

If you are liable to pay Council Tax, you still need to complete this form to claim Council Tax Support, but please check if you need to make a claim for Universal Credit as well.

If you are using the calculator and would like to calculate how much Council Tax Support you may be entitled to, you will require your Council Tax Band. If you do not know your Council Tax Band please visit the Valuation Office Agency's website and make a note of your band before continuing.
