How to claim?

If you claim Income Support/Jobseekers' Allowance (Income Based), you can claim Housing and/or Council Tax Benefit at the same time over the telephone or by filling in the form included inside the claim pack. This will be forwarded to us by your local Jobcentre Plus. If you are claiming Pension Credit then the Pension Service will help you to make your claim.

Alternatively, you can print one of our claim forms by selecting the links below; return the completed form to us. If you are housebound or unable to visit your local office because you are infirm or have a disability we may be able to arrange a home visit if you contact us.
