What is Adding a Name to a Tenancy Case Management?

An Adding a Name to a Tenancy case covers a resident’s request to convert a sole tenancy to a joint tenancy (often with a spouse, civil partner or long-term cohabiting partner), or to add another household member by formal assignment. Social landlords assess eligibility against tenancy agreement terms, security of tenure rules (Housing Act 1985 section 91 for secure tenancies, Housing Act 1988 for assured tenancies), succession implications, rent arrears, tenancy breaches and ID/right-to-reside status. Handled well, it is a simple customer journey; handled badly, it creates succession fraud, right-to-buy and contested-tenancy risks.
