We have lived in Ireland for about 11 years but my husband is ill and I would like us to move to a property near our son and family in Liverpool area. Although we own a small cottage, the housing market here is very bad and it will be difficult to sell and even if we can we will only get about 50,000 at the most. We will therefore have to rent. Only have state pensions. How can I find out if we would be entitled to housing benefit? The sites I have looked at say apply to your local council but, of course, we don't have on. Any help would be appreciated.
I've got another 'keen'... Ouch!
