<div data-wrapper="true" style="font-size: 12px; font-family: "Segoe UI", "Helvetica Neue", sans-serif"> <p>The Northern Ireland Housing Executive (NIHE) has a legal duty to provide help and advice if you become homeless. Depending on your personal situation, they may provide accommodation for you.</p> <p>You will need to submit a homelessness application. NIHE will assess this to see if they have a duty to provide you with accommodation. They assess whether you are homeless, are in priority need, made yourself homeless by choice and/or have a local connection. They may provide you with temporary accommodation while they investigate your circumstances.</p> <p>If you are assessed as priority need (for example if there are children in your family, someone is suffering from serious mental or physical illness or is at risk from domestic violence) and meet the other criteria, NIHE must help you find suitable accommodation. This needs to be available for at least two years. They do not have to provide you with permanent housing.</p> <p>For further information call NIHE on 03448 920 900.</p> </div>
