If you are already homeless or we cannot help you to
keep your home we will begin a homeless investigation.
During a homeless investigation we will consider whether you are
homeless or threatened with homelessness within 28 days.
You are considered to be homeless if the following apply to your
individual circumstances:
- You have no legal right to stay in your home
- There is nowhere that you and your family can stay
together
- You have somewhere to live but cannot gain entry to it
- You are at risk of violence from someone who is living in your
home
- You have a home in which it is not reasonable for you to live
when compared with the housing conditions of other people living in
the area
