Overview

We do not count some people when working out how many people live in a property. This is also known as being 'disregarded'.

Check who's disregarded for Council Tax.

Even if you're disregarded, you'll need to apply for a discount or exemption. You will not get it automatically.

You must pay Council Tax while you wait for us to decide if you're eligible for a discount. If you do not pay, we'll start the Council Tax recovery process.
