i have 40 points on the birmingham city council waiting list. does anyone know how long i would have to wait to get rehoused?

Read their allocations policy and statement of housing needs assessment: http://www.birmingham.gov.uk/Media/Allocation%20Summary.pdf?MEDIA_ID=279913&FILENAME=Allocation%20Summary.pdf

To be honest, with 40 points it doesn’t sound like you’ve got much hope of getting a home anytime soon – one year minimum wait and in reality probably closer to two or three or even more, depending on the areas you’ve selected for preferential living. Birmingham band their housing applicants into 4 categories, and with just 40 points out of a potential 350 you’re at the lower end of the lowest band. People in greater housing need than you will rightly come first – homeless families, homeless individuals, couples with children, single parents with children, those currently living in very overcrowded and/or run-down housing, those with disabilities or chronic illnesses, the elderly, vulnerable young people, young care-leavers, people leaving the armed forces with nowhere to go et al. However, if you personally fit into any of those categories and believe you’ve been incorrectly assessed despite, ask to be reassessed for priority.

It might be better for you to enquire about other housing options – for instance, are you entitled to housing benefit? If so, ask the council for a list of private landlords who will accept tenants receiving housing benefit and look into renting a flat or a room in a shared house on the open market. If you’re earning above £15,000 but less than £60,000 a year, you could also be eligible for shared-ownership home purchase or staircasing.
