Tell us about a change

You must tell us if there is a change to the information you have previously provided as soon as possible, as it may affect benefits you're entitled to.

Some of the changes you should tell us about:

• you move home
• someone moves into or out of where you live
• you get married
• you separate or divorce
• your child leaves school
• you stop receiving Child Benefit
• you take in a lodger
• you start or stop work, or your earnings change
• there is a change to any other income you have
