Calculate your Housing Benefits

Benefit calculators can help you find out what you’re entitled to.

Please keep in mind:

• The amount you receive may be affected by the benefit cap
• If you are working age you may not be able to claim Housing Benefit. Instead you will have to make a claim for Universal Credit if you need help to pay your rent

What you’ll need

You’ll need accurate information about:

• Savings
• Income, including your partner’s (from payslips, for example)
• Existing benefits and pensions (including anyone living with you)
• Council Tax bill
• Rent agreement
• Childcare payments
