Introduction
Before making a claim to us:
- Use the entitled to.co.uk free benefit calculator to find out if you can get help and how much you could get
- Check if you should claim Universal Credit for help towards your rent, rather than Housing Benefit
If you claim Housing Benefit and you also pay Council Tax, we will work out any Council Tax Reduction you can get at the same time.
The sooner you make a claim with all the evidence we need, the quicker we can work out your award.
