This is a benefit to help you pay your rent if you have a low income. It is being replaced by Universal Credit. However there are people who can still make a new claim.

You can make a new claim for Housing Benefit if the following applies:

  •  you and your partner have reached state pension age;

  •  you are in supported, sheltered or temporary housing.

If you are already in receipt of Housing Benefit and move within the same local authority area, or have a change of circumstances, you can currently still claim Housing Benefit.

For more information go to www.gov.uk/housing-benefit/how-to-claim
