Housing Options Plan
This is NOT your application for social housing. Before you can apply for housing you are required to complete a housing options plan. This is to help you consider all the housing options available to you.
As part of the housing options plan, you will be asked a series of questions about your current circumstances.
It will take between 15-20 minutes to complete, and at the end you will be provided with a list of available options, including advice on how to improve your current housing situation. You can print this out.
It will be useful for you to have the following information available:
- amount of salary
- amount of benefits received
- amount of savings
Instructions on how to make an application for housing will be available AFTER you complete the Housing Options Plan (HOP).
