Thanks.

Does anyone know how long you need to be a resident of a district to apply to that local authority? For example moving home from one authority to another for housing needs. I assume you would be to be reassessed at your new home and district for services?

they refuse to give you a timeline they just say we will contact you in due course which is usually either 2 months or 6 months time.
