I get PIP enhanced daily and standard mobility. I receive it for severe hearing impairment. I read on my council website that you can apply for council tax reduction on the basis of being disabled but, both my husband and I work F/T so we are not on a low income. It also states if you are in a wheelchair, got a spare bedroom etc.
Can you only get CTR if you are on a low income along with being on other benefits? I know I could ring up and ask them, but just wondering if anyone here has or is in the same situation. Thank you.

It maybe possible to get a disabled band reduction. Some information here. https://www.gov.uk/council-tax/discounts-for-disabled-peopleYou will need to check your Local Authorities website for more information and apply through them.Anyone can apply for CTR but with both of you working F/T you may not be eligible. Claiming PIP doesn't automatically entitle you to CTR.
