Hello @scully and welcome to the community.
It will depend a lot on your personal circumstances.
It is worth checking your local council website for information on this, or speaking to them. I know on the Merton Council website they say that on some benefits the DWP will let them know and the council will send out a shorter form to claim housing benefit and council tax benefit, so hopefully this will apply to where you are.2 -
