About you

Why we ask for this information

We will only contact you by telephone if it appears that your situation is really urgent and that you need to speak with an adviser.

This service is only for people who are living in Northern Ireland or who want to know about housing law in Northern Ireland.

The law is different in England, Scotland, Wales and the Republic of Ireland so we can't help if your question is about housing in these countries.  If you need advice on housing in England, Scotland or Wales contact Shelter.  For advice in the Republic of Ireland contact your local Citizens Information service. 

Please tell us which Northern Ireland council area you live in. If you need advice on housing in England, Scotland or Wales, please visit Shelter and if you need advice on housing in the Republic of Ireland, please contact Citizens Information
