What is eligibility?
You have to be “eligible” to be entitled to any housing from the council. People from some nations are subject to immigration control and are not entitled to social housing. Some people have to have a “right to reside” and be “habitually resident” in this country to be entitled.
Eligibility is a very complicated issue and if you want to know more about it you can telephone our Housing Advice Team using the contact details at the end.
