Already earn money from work?
You must send us proof of the money you earn so we can work out your Housing/Council Tax Benefit.
If you work for an Employer
Please send us:
- Your last 5 payslips, if you are paid weekly
- Your last 3 payslips, if you are paid fortnightly
- Your last 2 payslips, if you are paid monthly or 4-weekly
If you do not have any payslips
Please ask your employer to complete a Certificate of Earnings. Please contact The Benefits Section for a Certificate of Earnings or download the form below.
If you have just started work
Do not delay sending your form back. We will let you know what information we need.
If you are paying money into a pension scheme
If you pay money into a pension scheme, you need to send us proof of the payments you make. If the pension scheme is not run by your employer, you will need to let us see the policy documents, and proof of the actual amount you are currently paying after any tax relief e.g. sight of the payments on your bank statements, or a letter from the pension provider.
If you cannot send the information now
It will speed up your claim if you send proof of earnings and pension payments at the same time as you send the form.
If you cannot get hold of this information straight away, just send the form with the documents you already have
If you don't, you may lose benefit
But you must send this information as soon as possible. We cannot work out your benefit without it.
