Complete this form to have your Housing Benefit paid direct to your bank or building society account by BACS transfer.
We are unable to pay into some accounts, such as individual savings accounts (ISAs), Post Office card accounts and some savings accounts. If you aren't sure about the account you want to use, please speak to your bank or building society.
If you close your account or change bank accounts, you must tell us as quickly as possible as it could delay your payments.
This form will ask you to provide
- For tenants - your details including National Insurance number, contact details and bank details for the account you want the benefit paid to.
- For landlords - your details, the tenant's name and address and bank details for the account you want the benefit paid to.
