Pregnant and need help with council house application

[Bron148]

Idk if this is in the right section but I need help

So I'm 21 and currently 11 weeks pregnant and I recently applying for social housing for council and j filled my details about me and ticked that I'm pregnant and my due date and that I currently work part time

But I'm stuck on one section that they require to prove that where I live now is overcrowded and unsuitable for a baby

So I live with my mum, her partner and his son and my two half siblings and I also rent a room in a HMO but I only stay there once a month so I don't count myself living there so I didn't include it in the application

I work part-time and I do get UC but not alot and payments vary every month

But anyway so I'm stuck on the part where you add additional household members including children
But I cant seem to add anyone without a national insurance number I don't know my mums and her partners national insurance number and I would rather not ask and I know my mum wouldn't know she hasn't worked for over 20 years and her partner is carer for his parents I know he would know his but that's personal information

But I can't seem to add my siblings who are only 5 and 6 years old as I need to add a NI number but they haven't even got one as they not 16 yet and it's same with my mum's partners son he's only 14

My mum currently doesn't know about my pregnancy only her partner does who happens to find a hanging test out my bag and questioned it

I can't put in n/a or na to say I don't know I can't continue because it wants a national insurance number for each person

I can't stay in my shared accommodation as I won't be able to continue being a tenant there with a baby I have 5 other roommates I will be told to leave
So I need to hand in my notice soon but I can't stay at my parents because there not even room for a cot as I share room with my 5 yo sister

I also haven't added my boyfriend as joint yet he works full time and earns way more than 200 a week I feel his earning will affect the application they think I'm not in criteria even though I earn only around 80-100 a week

My bf has no knowledge of how housing and tenancies work he doesn't know where to start

Please help do I ring them up for assistance because it order to increase my list in brand I need to prove it's overcrowd I need to move out atleast before this child pops out of me

Please help

Lots of people get it confused when they first post on here. You want the "start thread" button, not the "add post" button.

You rent a place but don't stay there?

Does your UC pay for this HMO place that you aren't living in?

Honestly this sounds like a lot of fraud going on. You are factually have TWO homes, one you are choosing to not even use so you are not anywhere near 'overcrowded' and 'in need'.

Have you seen the cost of private rent? It isnt affordable to most and offers 0 security. Can you blame her? A HMO is not suitable for a child regardless, nor is a tiny bedroom.

Put it like this.. I have a 5 year old and I'm currently pregnant with my second. Yet i have still not been offered anything on homechoice we currcurrently share a small room at my mums as I'm also down as homeless there 3 of us and soon to be 4.

Good luck you got a long road ahead we been stuck like this for 5 years now

You need to 'decide' where you live, and actually live there, and get a full time job so you are better placed to support a child.
Fraud is a criminal offence with heavy penalties so think carefully before omitting crucial information from the form.
