I hope Poppy has been able to clear that up for you @Kennym2022 and do let us know if you need a hand with anything else.
Are you thinking of moving to Manchester soon?0 -

THats not what i meant you wont even be put on the housing list at all if you havent lived in the area for atleast two years0

I think the rules for most areas is you need to have a local connection to the area or need to have lived there for x amount of years. You can look at privately renting but if you're relying on benefits to help with the rent then this won't be easy to find a landlord that will accept you.
