Council Tax

Council Tax: Single Person Discount Review

We are required by law to review all Council Tax payers who receive a 25% single person discount. We have approximately 21,380 payers who benefit from this discount, and whilst the majority of these claims are genuine, it is essential that we ensure the discount is only awarded to those who are entitled.

Letters will be sent to residents who receive Single Person Council Tax Discount asking them to verify that their single person discount remains applicable or to update their details. This review is being undertaken on our behalf and if you receive a form, please sign and return it as soon as possible to the details shown on the letter in order for your discount to be verified.

If you are still the sole adult resident in your property your discount will continue.
