When we receive your application form we will contact you to let you know we have received it. Our target for assessing completed application forms and adding them to the housing register is 10 working days after receiving them.
Once your application has been assessed, we will write to tell you:
●The size of house you qualify for
●The areas that you want to be considered for
●Which group we have placed you in
●How many points you have been awarded
We may contact you if we require more information or proof to process your application. While we are doing this , your application for housing will be active on the housing register but may not have all the points awarded to it until we receive the proof we require or carry out a medical assessment.
Medical assessments are carried out by an Independent Medical specialist. It may take around 8 weeks before the points are awarded to your application. It is important you get back to us as soon as possible if we require additional information from you. We will write to you to tell you the number of points you have been given after the first assessment.
