Housing options
The State Government, through the Department of Communities (Communities), provides a range of support to people with various housing needs.
Clients who are homeless and unable to provide documents due to their extenuating circumstances may still apply for housing products by verifying their identity (refer to the Identity Policy and Evidence Requirements Factsheet) through providing:
- Evidence of their extenuating circumstances;
- Evidence of valid registration with Centrelink or receipt of Centrelink payment; and
- One identity document listed in the Evidence Requirements Factsheet.
Alternatively, a Third Party Identity Provider may be used to verify a client's identification.
For more information on what housing products are available, visit Communities' Housing options page.
