There is currently an issue with a third party which affects our online forms platform. This issue stops the authentication code not being sent to customers when logging in. If you are unable to login, please try again later. We apologise for any inconvenience.
On 28 October 2026, the Government announced that people in Council Tax Bands A to D will receive a £100 payment in their bank accounts. We will provide this in January 2027 with the details we have in the Council Tax system.
We currently have no more detail than this and there may be exceptions which we will outline when we receive the detailed guidance. As soon as we have more detail, we will provide an update.
Tell us if you disagree with our decision
We look into each individual claim for a Crisis and Resilience Fund Housing Payment. Our aim is to prevent you from losing your home, or help you move into affordable accommodation.
Your tenancy must be sustainable and affordable moving forward. Housing Payments are usually a temporary solution.
Even if you or your partner meet some, or all the criteria, we still might not be able to give you a Housing Payment.
What happens after you apply
Once we have looked at your application, we will write to you, to explain our decision about your Housing Payment.
If you disagree with our decision
If you disagree with our decision, you can ask us to look at your application again. Once we have looked at your application for a second time, you can’t appeal or ask us to look at it again.
