• When you have filled in the form we will also need to see proof of your current address.  We will also need to see proof of the identity of each person who will be living in the house or flat. A full list of proofs can be downloaded here.

• We may also need other information.  This could include:
  • Proof of eligibility for social housing;
  • Proof of income or
  • Proof of any medical or other special needs.

Sometimes we will visit you in your present home to help us assess your needs.
