Question

Can you be on more than one council housing list at a time?

Answer 1

Yes, I'm on two although I have a house with one of them. I would eventually like to move to the other council and as I was born in that county I have every right to be on it too. The only thing is I'm not a priority as I already have a home so it's very unlikely that i'll get an offer from them unless, of course I suddenly have a million kids or pretend I'm not British

Answer 2

Not that I am aware of.

Answer 3

Yes!

Answer 4

No.  You have to be resident of the borough in which you're applying.

OK, correction: you can but if you become homeless and seek emergency housing, you'll be referred to the council within whose borough you were living when given the notice to quit - that's how I understand it.
