How to add the monetary judgement of the S21 possession order?

Hello, one of the challenges landlords face is that credit references do not automatically capture the non-payment of rental arrears / costs following the S21 process. This invariably means that the credit referencing process is flawed and if anything exposes landlords to serial defaulters.

While this challenge is well known (I have even seen videos with Paul Shamplina talking about this issue in passing), what it not well understood is the process to “manually” add the monetary element of the judgement to the Register (what we think of as the CCJ).

I have seen recommendations such as: 1) write an email to the Court; 2) fill in form N322A; or even 3) fill in form N255. There is surprisingly little written on this topic with even some solicitors not being able to recommend the correct procedure.

Can anyone recommend the correct process to use to ensure the monetary judgement of the s21 possession order is properly registered so that it will appear on a credit reference report?

Thank you,

AJ
