Process flow
- It is best to contact the relevant office in advance to find out what documents you need.
- You submit your application for continued benefits in writing using the form provided or with the help of the online service. You can send the form by post to the housing benefit office responsible for you or hand it in in person.
- The authority will check your application for continued benefits and send you a decision.
- In the event of continued approval, housing benefit is generally granted for a further twelve months and can be granted for up to 24 months if your income remains relatively constant.
What deadlines do I have to pay attention to?
To ensure uninterrupted receipt of housing benefit, the application for continued benefit must be submitted at the latest in the month following the expiry of the previous benefit period.
