Before you can apply to join the Housing Register, you'll need to create a Housing Online account.

• You'll need an email address to create and verify your account. If you do not have one, you'll need to set one up first.
• If you're helping someone apply, use their email address, not your own. If they do not have an email address, you'll need to help them create one.
• Once your account has been created, you can complete the online housing application form.

You will need the following information to hand before you start the process:  

• Full names and dates of birth of everyone to be included in your registration for rehousing  
• National Insurance Number for all adults who are to be rehoused with you  
• 4 year address history for all adults who are to be rehoused with you  
• Immigration status of everyone who is to be rehoused with you  
• Details of any unspent criminal convictions and contact details of Probation Office (if applicable), for anyone who is to be rehoused with you  
• Details of any Armed Forces service including dates of service, for anyone who is to be rehoused with you
