Council Tax Benefit
Council Tax Benefit is paid to people who are on a low income and need help towards their Council Tax bill.
You can claim Council Tax Benefit if:
- You are liable for the Council Tax Bill for the home where you are resident
- You have savings of less than £16,000 unless you are over 60 years old and are in receipt of the Pension Credit Guarantee Credit.
- Your income is low enough
- You are not a student - students are normally exempt from Council Tax
- You are not a person from abroad with limited leave to enter or remain in the UK.
There is no minimum amount of Council Tax benefit you can receive, but the maximum is 100% of the annual charge.
