Council Tax Support, also called Council Tax Reduction in some parts of the UK, is usually assessed by your local council. Eligibility can depend on your income, savings, household circumstances, age, disability and whether you receive other benefits, with rules varying between councils. For free guidance, check your council’s website through GOV.UK or contact Citizens Advice, then apply directly to the council rather than paying a claims company. The council will make the final decision based on your circumstances, and you can usually ask how to challenge it if you disagree.
