What to do if you are being made homeless or being evicted

What to do if you are threatened with homelessness

This guide is for you if you are being made homeless soon. There are lots of different reasons why you may be homeless soon. For example, it could be because you are being evicted by your private landlord or because you are being made homeless by a partner as you separate. Regardless of where you are living right now, if there is a risk of you becoming homeless in the next 8 weeks this guide will take you through all you need to know to avoid losing your home. It will help you work out what steps you need to take and where to go for help.

Getting started

If you are worried that you may have nowhere to live soon you are likely to be feeling stressed or anxious. You might be facing eviction by your landlord, who has given you a section 21 notice or a family member or partner might have asked you to leave.

Whatever the reason behind your housing problem, you might well be feeling that you don’t have the energy to sort it out or don’t know how to get help. But, the sooner you do the sooner things are likely to get better. Start by reading this guide. Perhaps a support worker, friend or relative can read through it with you and help you take the next steps. 

Free legal advice for housing problems 

You can get free legal advice under a new government scheme if you have received a written notice that someone is seeking the possession of your home. This might be an email or letter from your landlord or from a company you owe money to, known as a creditor.

A housing expert may be able to help with

  • illegal eviction
  • disrepair and other problems with housing conditions
  • rent arrears
  • mortgage arrears
  • welfare benefits payments
  • debt

If you have to go to court, a housing adviser can also provide free legal advice and representation at the court hearing.

To find an adviser who can help you via this scheme, go to find-legal-advice.justice.gov.uk. Put in your postcode and then tick the box ‘Housing Loss Prevention Advice Service’

This guide is for you if:

  • you may be made homeless,
  • you live in England, and,
  • you have British citizenship or the right to remain in the UK.

It is also for people supporting others in this situation, for example, housing support workers and advice workers as well as relatives and friends.

This guide is not for you if:

  • You live outside England - (the law is different in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland).
  • You are not eligible for help with housing - This is about your immigration status. See the section called Eligibility assessment for more help on this. 

Do you support homeless people and those threatened with homelessness?

In our Support your clients with housing section you will find a guide for support workers and volunteers. It aims to equip them with the knowledge and skills to better help those they support to make a housing application to the council, get a fair Personal Housing Plan, secure emergency accomodation for tonight,  challenge a decision by the council, and get legal advice. 


 This guide explains:

  • When the council must treat you as threatened with homelessness.
  • When and how to contact the council for help.
  • How the council will work out if you are eligible for help with housing.
  • What the council must do to help stop you from becoming homeless - known as the ‘Prevention duty’
  • How the council works out how to help you and what your Personal Housing Plan is.
  • What you should do if the council doesn’t agree to help you.
     

We try to explain any legal language or technical terms as we go along but there is also a What does it mean? section at the end of the guide where we explain some important legal or technical terms.

What does being threatened with homelessness mean?

You are threatened with homelessness if you are likely to be homeless within the next 56 days (8 weeks). You are also threatened with homelessness if you have been served with a valid section 21 eviction notice which ends in 56 days or less. 

If you have been served with a section 21 eviction notice read our guide How to deal with a section 21 notice for more help. 

To understand if you are threatened with homelessness you need to know what counts as being homeless according to the law. 

You are homeless if you have no accommodation that you are legally entitled to live in. The accommodation needs to be available for you to live in and it must be reasonable for you to carry on living in it.

‘You’ not only means you -  it includes you and anyone else who normally lives with you. It also includes people who may reasonably be expected to live with you. This means people who aren’t living with you right now but would be if they could. For example, your family coming to live with you from abroad. The council decides if it is reasonable to expect other people who aren’t living with you at the time you ask the council for help, to be housed with you.

For example you are classed as homeless if

  • you are sleeping on a friend’s sofa,
  • you are sleeping rough on the streets or staying out all night for example on night buses,
  • you have a home but it is unreasonable for you to occupy it, for example, because it is in a very poor state of repair,
  • you are at risk of domestic abuse or violence at your home if you go back to it. 

What counts as domestic abuse

Domestic abuse in relationships is very common. Behaviour is abusive if it includes any of the following

  • physical or sexual abuse,
  • violent or threatening behaviour,
  • controlling or coercive behaviour,
  • economic abuse,
  • psychological or emotional abuse.

The abusive person must be (or have been) in an intimate personal relationship with you or be a relative. Abuse directed towards your child or someone else you care about also counts as abuse towards you.

When and how to get help from the council

As soon as you realise you may become homeless in the next 56 days (8 weeks) you need to contact your council’s housing department. 

If the council doesn’t know about you or your housing problems it has no duty to help you. It is only by contacting the council that you can start getting some help.

Someone who is already helping you, such as a social worker or probation officer, can tell the local council about your housing problem for you as long as you give your permission to them to do this. This is called a referral. 

If you agree to someone else making a referral for you it is important you check it contains everything the council needs to know about your situation. Ask to see the paperwork to be sure. This is because the council cannot make an accurate decision about your case without all the information about your situation. 

Unless someone refers you to the council, you need to call and make an appointment at the council as soon as you can. 

You can ring the housing department and arrange an appointment for another day - this can be best because you probably won’t have to wait so long. 

You might prefer to go straight to the council’s housing office without an appointment but they may ask you to come back another day or you may have to wait for many hours to be seen. 

Local council housing departments are very busy places so it is important to get there early in the day if you haven’t made an appointment. You may have to wait to be seen for several hours.  

You can find your council’s contact details and address via the Shelter website.

When you go to your council housing department for help, staff must help you if they believe you are threatened with homelessness. Everyone has the right to make an application for help with a housing problem. You might not get help because of your immigration status. For more on this see the section called the Eligibility assessment.

You need to make sure you get to see a housing officer. Lots of councils now have such a shortage of housing that the receptionist will often try and send you away as soon as you arrive. Make sure you stand your ground and explain that you know you have the right to make an application for help with housing. 

If you can ask someone to go with you to give you some moral support this would be a good idea.

First the housing officer will ask you questions to work out if your immigration status entitles you to help with your housing. This is often called ‘eligibility’ or being 'eligible'. We talk more about this in the next section.

Make sure you take as much evidence of your situation as you can find. The housing officer will need as much information as possible to make a decision about what type of help the council should give you. 

If you possibly can, make sure you take:

  • Proof of identity such as your passport, ID card or driving licence,
  • Eviction notice and tenancy agreement if you have been told to leave your home by your landlord, or a letter from the adult you live with stating they have asked you to leave,
  • Proof of your income, such as bank statements, pay slips and all benefits,
  • Proof of your children’s identity, such as their birth certificates and your child benefit letter,
  • Proof of your pregnancy, such as a letter from your midwife or your MATB1 form,
  • Proof of any medical condition you have, such as a letter from your doctor or hospital or copies of your prescriptions, 
  • Proof of your immigration status such as a passport or other document that shows you have the right to live in the UK. If you don’t have this you need to read the section called Eligibility assessment to work out what to do next.

If you do not have any of these things the council must assess you anyway – they can’t send you away just because you haven’t got documents. But it will make your application more likely to succeed if you take as much as you can.

To work out if your local council has a duty to help you or not they will need to carry out an assessment. This assessment might be done on the day you first visit or you might get asked to go back another day. The assessment can take a couple of hours. You will be asked questions about:

  • Yourself and your family,
  • Your immigration status,
  • Your address history,
  • Your health,
  • What has led you to be threatened with homelessness. 

Top tips for going to your council for help

  • Before you go try and think about what you want to ask the council to do to help you - see Your assessment and Personal Housing Plan
  • Get there early or, better still, call in advance and book an appointment.
  • If you get an appointment make sure you are there on time. 
  • Make sure you can stay there all day if you need to, for example, by making arrangements for your children to be looked after by someone else.
  • Take all the evidence you possibly can - see the list above for suggestions.
  • Take someone with you for support if you can.
  • Take notes on everything you are told and get the full name and contact details of the housing officer you speak to. If you take a friend they could help with this. 
  • Try to stay calm and polite, but be firm too about getting the help you need.
  • Before you leave make sure you understand what will happen next.
  • Make sure the council always has your up to date mobile number and email and address or address of a friend or family member where post can be sent safely. 
Eligibility assessment

If the council thinks you are threatened with homelessness, the first decision the housing officer needs to make is whether or not you are eligible for help with housing. This is to do with your immigration status. 

You must have the right to stay in the UK if you want to get help with housing.  There are lots of detailed rules about this. You can find further information about these rules on the Shelter website. 

If you are told you are not entitled to housing assistance because of your immigration status you should get more help and advice to see if this decision is correct.  

How to get help and advice about your eligibility

You might well be entitled to free legal help about your housing issue. Make sure you check this. 

You will need this information to go through the assessment:

  • Your income - wages, pension, maintenance and benefits.
  • Your outgoings - rent or mortgage, maintenance, childcare costs, monthly contribution order payments (if you have to pay towards any criminal legal aid costs).

If it looks like you might be entitled to free legal advice you can then call the Civil Legal Advice helpline. Or they can call you back. The contact details to do this appear on the website after you have put in your information about your financial situation. Call charges apply when you ring CLA but you can get them to call you for free.

You can call Shelter for telephone advice about your housing problem for free.  See the section called More help and advice.

You can also search for a solicitor or housing adviser who does housing law on GOV.UK.

If you have a dispute with the council about any of the things covered in this guide, a very useful resource is the government’s Code of Guidance on Homelessness. It is long and detailed, but if you know what the issue is, thanks to this guide, you can find the right bit. The housing officers know they are supposed to follow the guidance so it can also be useful to quote paragraph numbers from it.

If you think the decision the council makes is wrong, ask for it to be looked at again. For more help on this look at our guide How to challenge the decision about your homelessness application.

If the council decides correctly that you are not eligible because of your immigration status the housing department doesn’t have any duty to help you except to give basic general information on how to avoid becoming homeless and how to find a new home. The housing department doesn’t have to help you find somewhere to live.

You will need to go to the Home Office for help or your social worker if you have one. Unfortunately, the rest of this guide will not be useful to you. Instead of reading on you should take a look at Praxis, Refugee Action and the Refugee Council websites. 

If the council decides you are eligible for help with your housing, and that you are likely to be homeless soon - in the next 56 days (8 weeks) - it has a duty to help stop this from happening. This is called the Prevention duty and we explain more about it in the next section. 

The Prevention duty - what it is and how long it lasts

If the housing officer decides that you are eligible for housing help and that you are threatened with homelessness, your local council has a duty to help prevent you from ending up homeless. This is known as the ‘Prevention duty’. It does not mean that the council has a duty to actually house you. 

Your local council must take reasonable steps to help prevent you from becoming homeless. 

A housing officer has to carry out an assessment to work out what these steps are. The steps are then written down in your Personalised Housing Plan. For more on this see the section called Your assessment and Personal Housing Plan. 

The first thing the council should do is look at how to help you stay where you are, in your current home. If this is not possible it will need to help you find a new home which you can move into in a planned way.  This could mean the council helps you to stay in your current home for a bit longer while you find a new one to go to. 

You can ask any council for help if you think you might be made homeless within the next 56 days (8 weeks). But it makes sense to ask for help from the council where you are living, unless you have a good reason not to want to do that.

If you ask a different council for help, and you later become homeless, the council you approach may then try and send you back to the council where you were living. For more help on this see A survival guide to what to do if you are homeless.        

Even if you have no local connection to an area the council cannot send you back to where you were before if you or anyone who may reasonably be expected to live with you will be at risk of domestic abuse or other violence, in the other council’s area.

If you approach a different council, they will sometimes try and tell you to go back to the council where you were living without assessing you. They are not allowed to do this – they must help you and assess you. For tactics in this situation, see the section called How to deal with the council if it won’t accept your application.

The council must take into account your needs and situation when working with you to prevent you becoming homeless. This might mean that, with your permission, your housing officer works with your support worker, if you have one. Examples of your particular needs could be:

  • If you have disabilities you will need accommodation you can access properly for example with a wheelchair. 
  • Enough bedrooms for your children so that the boys and girls don’t have to share when they are aged 10 or over.
  • Accommodation that is located near to a special school that your child needs to attend. 

The Prevention duty lasts for up to 56 days (8 weeks) from the date the council decides you need help. Or, longer if you have been given a valid section 21 eviction notice and it is still in effect. If in this time you actually become homeless the duty the council has to you changes, but carries on. For more information on this see A survival guide to what to do if you are homeless.

The Prevention duty can end sooner if the council decides you have:

  • Refused suitable accommodation that it has offered to you - for more about this see the next section.
  • Made yourself intentionally homeless from accommodation that the council has provided - for more about this go to the next section.
  • Unreasonably refused to take a step set out in your Personalised Housing Plan - we talk about this in the next section. 

So, it is really important that you try not to do any of these things as if you do the council can simply refuse to help at all. 

Your assessment and Personal Housing Plan

The assessment

The assessment can take around 1 - 2 hours and will usually be a face to face meeting at the housing department. Or, occasionally it might take place at your current home or sometimes over the phone, if for example you are in hospital. 

You will to be asked about:

  • Yourself and your household. This includes your partner, your children, and anyone else who lives with you, or who may reasonably be expected to live with you.  
  • The circumstances that have caused you to be threatened with homelessness - what has happened for you to be where you are, needing help?
  • What you need - for example, if you have children or you have a disability then you will have different housing needs to someone without any disabilities or children. 
  • What support you think you need to stay living where you are or to move to somewhere new. This includes things like help completing benefit applications, or language support, if English is not your first language.

You need to prepare for your assessment so that you get the best Personal Housing Plan for your needs.

Top tips on how to prepare for your assessment

  • Make sure you have all the information you can get to prove to the housing officer what your housing needs are.
  • Think about what you would like the council to do to help you. See some examples below. 
  • Try to be as open as possible about the issues you face as this will help the housing officer to get a better understanding of your situation and shape the plan around you better. 
The council should:
  • Listen to your wishes about the type and size of accommodation you think you need.
  • Listen to you about where you would like to live and why.  You are unlikely to be able to choose the area but the council should take into account things like where you work, children’s primary schools or if you need to make regular hospital visits.
  • Consider what is affordable for you.
  • Consider what special needs anyone in your household might have that will affect all your housing needs. 

Your Personal Housing Plan

The council has to tell you what practical and reasonable steps it will take to help prevent you from becoming homeless. You will also be asked to agree  reasonable steps that you will take to help yourself from becoming homeless. These steps must be written down in what is called your Personalised Housing Plan. 

If possible, you need to agree these steps with the housing officer. If you can’t agree, what goes in the plan is what the housing officer thinks should go in. 

Some of the reasonable steps for you to take set out in the plan will be steps you have to take - known as mandatory steps. Others will be steps that it would be a good idea for you to take - known as recommended steps. The housing officer must make it clear to you which steps are which. 

Examples of the type of help the council might give you and put in your Plan are:

  • Mediation with family who are threatening to make you leave your home,
  • Assessing if you might be entitled to financial help with rent arrears,
  • Advising you on benefits you might be able to claim,
  • Giving you help to access private rented accommodation such as paying a deposit or first month’s rent,
  • Helping you negotiate with your landlord,
  • Giving you help if you are suffering domestic abuse at home but want to stay living there.

Examples of the steps you might be asked to take and might be put in your Plan are:

  • Getting debt or benefit advice - see More help and advice.  
  • Getting support from a specialist domestic abuse organisation or a family law solicitor - see our More help and advice section on this. 
  • Looking for private rented accommodation - the council should give you information on local agencies and you can use google to find sites like rightmove, and zoopla.

The housing officer will arrange for your Personal Housing Plan to be reviewed and talk to you about any changes in your situation so that the plan can be updated. You can also ask for your Plan to be looked at again. This is useful as it means that you can get another chance to explain your situation and ask for different support that will hopefully make things better for you. 

It is really important you do the things set out for you to do in your Plan. If you don’t, and they think you are being unreasonable, the council will remind you of what you need to be doing in a warning notice. If you still don’t do the things in your Plan the council can end its duty to help you. But, even if this happens, if you become actually homeless later on the council will owe you the Relief duty to help you and must provide you with somewhere to stay if they think you may be in priority need. For more on this see A survival guide to what to do if you are homeless.

At this stage the council might offer you what it calls ‘suitable accommodation’. This is a place to stay that is suitable for your needs and that you would be able to live in for at least 6 months. If you refuse this accommodation because you don’t think it is suitable for you, the council may decide that they no longer have a duty to help you at all. So, it is important to think very carefully before refusing. You should try your hardest to find a housing law solicitor or housing adviser before you make this decision, to get some legal advice. Go to find a legal aid adviser or Shelter England.

If under your Plan you do get offered accommodation which you accept but then for some reason you leave it, the council may decide that it is your fault that you are homeless, because you left, and so they nolonger have a duty to help you. The law calls this making yourself ‘intentionally homeless’. For more help on this see A survival guide to what to do if you are homeless

Top tips for negotiating what you want in your Personal Housing Plan

  • Remain calm and polite even when you feel stressed or frustrated.

  • The Plan should be about you - you should ask for things that would really help you to go into it. 

  • Try to be clear and firm when asking for what you want.

  • Try and work out what it is you want before you go for your assessment - for example, help with a deposit and getting a private rented home. 

  • Make a list of the things you want to say so that you don’t forget something important.

  • If you can, find a housing adviser or solicitor before you go to your assessment see if they can write you a letter saying why they think the council has a duty to help you and what help you need. Or, you can contact Shelter online, by phone or in person. Find all their details in the section called More help and advice.

  • Try to agree to the steps in the Plan - if you can’t the council will make you take the steps the housing officer think are reasonable.

How to deal with the council if it won’t accept your application

What to do if the council says you are not entitled to help

If the council says you are not eligible for help because of your immigration status you will only be able to get general help and information about homelessness.

If you think the housing officer might have made the wrong decision about your immigration status you should try to get independent legal advice on this. For more information on this see the section called the Eligibility assessment

Make sure you ask for the decision on your eligibility to be put in writing. You then have 21 days from the date of that letter to ask for a review of the decision.

If you can, you should ask a housing law solicitor or housing adviser to do this for you. The solicitor or adviser is likely to get a quicker response and the council might change their mind if the solicitor or adviser makes it clear the decision is wrong in law. If the Council does not change its mind quickly, a more senior member of the council team will review the decision and then must tell you in writing the outcome of the review within 8 weeks. 

If the review goes against you, you only have 3 more weeks to appeal to the county court. You cannot just appeal because you don’t like the decision. Instead, you need to show errors of law were made by the housing officer. This is a difficult thing to do without proper legal advice from a solicitor who specialises in housing law or a housing adviser. However, if you can’t get help in time, you should put the appeal in within the 3 weeks and get advice as quickly as possible afterwards.

You should get independent legal advice to help you decide whether or not to appeal. You can find a housing law solicitor or adviser on GOV.UK.

For more help on challenging the council’s decision about your housing application see our guide How to challenge the decision about your homelessness application

What to do if the council says you are not threatened with homelessness

When you go to the council for help the housing officer might decide that you are not actually threatened with homelessness in the next 56 days. 

If the housing officer refuses to help at this point he or she must put this in writing. If you do not receive the decision in writing make sure you ask for it. You can ask for it to be sent to an address of a reliable friend or family member. Or you can go back and collect it yourself. 

Once you get the decision in writing you have 21 days (3 weeks) to ask for a review of the decision.  A more senior member of the council team will review the decision and then must tell you in writing the outcome of the review within 8 weeks. 

If the review goes against you, you have 3 more weeks to appeal to the county court. You cannot just appeal because you don’t like the decision. Instead, you need to show errors of law were made by the housing officer. This is a difficult thing to do without proper legal advice from a lawyer who specialises in housing law. However, if you can’t get help in time, you should put the appeal in within the 3 weeks and get advice as quickly as possible afterwards.

You can search for a housing solicitor or adviser on GOV.UK.

What does it mean?

Domestic abuse - domestic abuse in relationships is very common. Behaviour is abusive if it includes any of the following

  • physical or sexual abuse,
  • violent or threatening behaviour,
  • controlling or coercive behaviour,
  • economic abuse,
  • psychological or emotional abuse.

The abusive person must be (or have been) in an intimate personal relationship with you or be a relative. Abuse directed towards your child or someone else you care about also counts as abuse towards you.

Personal Housing Plan - this is the document that sets out in writing what the council and you will do to help you avoid becoming homeless. 

Prevention duty - this is the duty on the council to help you for 56 days (8 weeks), from the date of your assessment, to stop you from becoming homeless. 

Section 21 eviction notice ­­- this is the name given to the paperwork your landlord gives you to tell you that they want you to leave their property and the date they want you to leave by. A section 21 notice gets its name from the section of the Act of Parliament that created it. You may also hear it called an ‘eviction notice’, a ‘notice to quit’ or a ‘notice seeking possession’.
