What Should I Do If My Circumstances Change After I Apply?

If your circumstances change after applying for social housing, it’s important to inform Hillingdon Council so your application can be updated and reassessed. Failing to do so could affect your eligibility for social housing and you may lose the property you're matched to.

You need to tell them about changes like:

• New household members (e.g., a new baby or partner)
• Changes in your household status (e.g., death, divorce)
• Change of address
• Changes in immigration status
• Changes in medical conditions affected by your housing

You'll need to complete a change in circumstances form and provide proof of the changes. Here’s a quick summary of the steps:
