Registrations for Housing
What do you need help with?
Register for Public & Community Housing
For information on types of public & community housing, and eligibility, please refer to Register for housing.
Public and community housing is not emergency accommodation. If you are homeless or at risk of becoming homeless there are crisis services that can help you.
If you are not eligible for public & community housing, contact SA Housing Trust on 131 299 to discuss other housing options, including help paying bond and rent and Homeseeker for affordable home ownership.
Some required information might be missing.
Required information is marked with a red asterisk and must be completed before you can progress. If you aren't sure which information to include in the fields, select the question icon next to the field for help.
This means there is still something for you to answer. Select the 'Actions' button to see which action needs to be completed.
When the actions are complete, they will have a green tick next to them. When they all have a green tick, you can progress through your registration.
A new address cannot have today's date as the start date, it must be at least one day in the past e.g. yesterdays date.
Refer to Income and asset limits.
These metropolitan and country maps can assist you in selecting areas for your registration.
It's a good idea to select areas where you may have existing support or feel familiar with.
You cannot select specific suburbs.
You are only required to provide proof of income and ID for everyone in your household aged 16 and over. You can do this by using the upload function at the end of your registration.
Your registration will move to 'My Saved and Pending Registrations' once it's saved. Saved registrations are only stored for 30 days. After 30 days, your registration will disappear and a new one must be created.
Contact SA Housing Trust on 131 299 for more help.
Yes. Select 'Save & Exit' at any time throughout the registration. You have 60 days to complete your saved registration.
You will receive a letter from SA Housing Trust telling you if you've successfully registered your interest, or if more information is required. You can view these in 'My Letters and Documents'.
Your registration can't be processed if you don't provide all of the information asked for.
Once your registration is processed, it will appear in 'My Accepted Registrations'.
Examples of documents you should upload to complete your registration include:
- proof of income and identity for everyone on your registration aged 16 and over
- confirmation of Aboriginality, if you wish to register for Aboriginal housing or housing in an Aboriginal community.
