Claiming Housing Benefit and Council Tax Benefit

From the 30 November 2005 there will be a change in the way working age customers living in the Bolton Job centre Plus district claim benefit. From this date working age people will make their new or repeat claim for Job seeker's Allowance (JSA), Income Support (IS) or Incapacity Benefit (IB) by calling Jobcentre Plus and their claim details will be taken over the telephone. They will also make their claim for Housing benefit and/or Council Tax Benefit (HB/CTB) at the same time. This means that working age customers will no longer need to fill in a paper form to claim JSA, IS, IB, or HB/CTB.

Contact Jobcentre Plus by Telephone on 0845 600 8175 and Text phone service is available on 0845 600 8189
