Applicants will have already been given priority points based on their housing need, so we do not need to re-assess anyone. However, if an applicant has had a change in their circumstances, for example if they (or a member of their household) have a serious medical problem that we are not aware of, please let us know.
Applicants may also be able to get extra points if the main applicant or his/her partner are currently employed and have been employed for the last two years. Applicants will need to provide sufficient documentation to prove that they are employed. Applicants can only apply for additional employment points if their application does not already have these points.
Employment and Residence points do not apply to households requiring studio or 1-bedroom properties.
