Changes you must tell us about
Tell us straightaway if:
• any of your children leave school or leave home;
• anyone moves into or out of your home (including lodgers and subtenants);
• your income or the income of anyone living with you, including benefits, changes;
• your capital, savings or investments change;
• you or anyone living with you becomes a student, goes on a Youth Training Scheme,
goes into hospital or a nursing home, goes into prison, or gets, changes or leaves a
job;
• Your rent changes;
• you move;
• you or your partner are going to be away from home for more than a month;
• you receive any decision from the Home Office; or
• anything you have told us about changes.
If you are in receipt of employment and support allowance, incapacity benefit or severe
disablement allowance and this income ceases as a result of you or your partner starting
work/hours increasing, please contact the benefits section.
You must tell us about these changes in writing - a phone call is not enough.
If you don't tell us about these changes you may lose money you are entitled to or you
may get too much benefit. You must make sure that you tell us about these changes. Don't
rely on someone else to pass the message on.
It is an offence not to tell us about any change of circumstance that affects your
entitlement to Housing Benefit and/or Council Tax Reduction. We may take court action
against you and if we pay you too much benefit, you will probably have to pay it back.
