- do not have a legal right to live in the UK
- are under 18

Once we receive your application we will write to you and tell whether you have been approved.
4. I am homeless or threatened with homelessness, can Viridian help
Unfortunately not, if you are homeless or threatened with homelessness you should contact your Local Authority (LA). We have agreements with LA’s to house the people on their homeless list. We may be able to offer guidance on how to apply to your LA and you can contact your local office for more information.
5. How can I find out where I am on the waiting list?
It is difficult to tell you exactly where you are on the waiting list as we assess new applications daily. Your waiting time will depend on a suitable property becoming available in your area of choice and the number of people on the waiting list with a higher priority or with an earlier date of application.
You can contact our lettings team on 0330 123 0220 who will be able to give you more information.

Yes, if you are already one of our residents and would like to move to another one of our homes you can apply for a transfer. If you would like to go on our transfer list, please contact your local office and we will send you an application form. Before applying for a transfer, remember
- we are unlikely to consider you for a home larger than you need
- you must not owe us any rent or other debts
- your home must be in reasonable condition and you must meet the conditions of your Tenancy Agreement
You may also want to register for ‘Homeswapper’ which may help you move quicker.
9. I am in rent arrears, am I still eligible for a transfer?
You have to pay off all rent arrears before you will be considered for a transfer.
10. How long could I be on the transfer list?
The length of time you will be on the transfer list depends on your housing need and the number of applicants with a higher priority or an earlier application date.
You can improve your chance of getting a transfer by being flexible in the areas or type of home that you want. Each office has a list of all the homes it has in the area by size and by local council and you should contact your local office for more information.
It is worth noting that you could face a long wait for a transfer, particularly in some areas where homes are in very short supply
