Late applications
The deadline to apply is 15 January 2023. If your application is submitted after this date, it will be considered late unless exceptional reasons prevented you from applying on time. For example:
- you are a single parent and have been seriously ill for an extended period
- a member of your immediate family has died
- your family has recently moved into the area or has just returned from abroad (in this case we'll also need to see proof of ownership or tenancy of a property within Hackney as well as a utility bill)
The last date that exceptional reasons can be considered and agreed is Wednesday 8 February 2023. After this date your application will be late regardless of the circumstances and will only be considered after all applications that were sent in on time have been dealt with. This is most likely to be after 17 April 2023, but you may still receive a letter telling you the outcome of your application on this date.
