how easy is it to move from one borough to another if you are on housing benefit?

i want to move to another area. i am currently renting privately but getting some of my rent paid by housing benefit.
am i allowed to move borough and apply for housing benefit in that new borough?

its very easy. Just tell the current council the day you are moving and tell them to cancel the benefit claim. Apply for housing benefit fr the new borough as soon as you can.
