Public and Community Housing Management Act 1992, s 115(1)
You have to tell the Ministry of Social Development (MSD) if your situation changes in a way that could affect whether you still qualify for social housing or how much rent you should be paying – for example, if your income or the number of people in your household changes.
If the number of people in your household changes (for example, if you have a new partner move in or you have a new baby), you’ll also need to contact your housing provider, such as Kāinga Ora (Housing NZ).
