Manchester Council Tax Support may help people on a low income, whether they are working, unemployed or receiving benefits. Eligibility usually depends on your income, savings, household circumstances, age, and the amount of Council Tax you must pay; different rules can apply to pensioners and working-age residents. You normally need to be liable for Council Tax and live in the property, although exclusions may apply. Check Manchester City Council’s official Council Tax Support guidance and apply there, as the council decides each claim based on the information provided.
