If you are claiming Housing Benefit and/or Council Tax Reduction you must tell us if there have been any changes about you or a household member which may affect your claim. You must tell us this within a month of the change happening.
If you do not tell us about a change, you could be receiving too much benefit and have to pay it back to us, or you may not be receiving enough benefit and miss out on what you could be receiving.
