Benefits advice

If you already receive benefit from us, our Benefit Advisor can make sure you're getting the correct amount.

We can help you complete claim forms, put you in touch with external or specialist agencies and help you with other issues around your Housing Benefit, including:

• notifying us of a change of circumstance
• having your benefit reviewed
• making a backdated claim
• getting an extended payment
• what happens if you receive an overpayment
• making an appeal about a decision regarding Housing Benefit
• changing benefits

Use the Online Benefits Calculator to find out what help and benefit you're entitled to.

General money advice is also available from a variety of organisations.
