Average wait time for households in urgent need

Department of Communities and Justice

Households on the NSW Housing Register include both priority applicants waiting to be housed and existing tenants in social housing waiting urgently to be rehoused, as their current house does not meet their needs. Priority applicants are those who have an urgent and ongoing housing need and are unable to resolve their need in the private market.
