Information for people from abroad
The rules for paying Benefits to people who are not British
nationals are complex.
Whether you are entitled to apply for Housing and/or Council Tax
Benefit will depend on:
- your nationality
- your immigration rights
- your status under the rights of residence directive
- whether you normally live in the United Kingdom
We may need to contact the Home Office to confirm information
you have given us and to get further information.
For help and advice contact the Benefits
section. A translation service is available.
