When should I claim Benefit?

You should claim as soon as possible. If you delay claiming, you may lose some Benefit. If you don't have all the proof you need to send with your claim form, please don't delay sending the form back. Please send or bring the form in and you can supply the proof later.

For more information please use this link to view our leaflet "Housing & Council Tax Benefit-How to Claim".
