You can use this service to report a change that may impact on your housing benefit or council tax support.
You will have to repay any overpaid benefits if you delay or fail to tell us about a change in circumstances.
We need to know about any change of circumstances, such as:
- If you move home
- If someone moves in or out
- If your income changes
- If your rent changes
- If you qualify for another benefit
- If you stop getting Income Support or Jobseeker’s Allowance
- If anyone living in your home has a change of circumstance
If you fail to tell us about a change at all, then you could be prosecuted for benefit fraud.
Before you start
To use this service you will need:
- Your national insurance number
- Your address details
- Your benefit claim reference number

- Any evidence you may need to prove your changes (these must be original documents and not copies)
