Hi, my name is JulieJac66 I need advice on council tax once awarded PIP

JulieJac66

Hey Guys, how are you all doing? I strongly pray you are all well, no I am not churchier no time. Yet I do thankfully hope you are are in good health. x I have been awarded PIP standard for daily living as I work 25 to 30 hours a week, yet I have been given enhanced motobility, I basically feel they are trying to keep me in work, but I can live with that, I love my job and I will carry on as long as I can. Could anyone advise me if I will get a council tax reduction because I have been awarded PIP please. Your guidance would be greatly appreciated. x

The majority of councils do not provide a reduction for claiming PIP, it may be worth checking your local council website to see if they are the rare exception.

There maybe some disabled discounts. See link. https://www.gov.uk/council-tax/discounts-for-disabled-people
If you live woth someone that cares for you (providing they are not your partner, husband/wife) there's a 25% carers discount. https://www.turn2us.org.uk/Benefit-guides/Council-Tax-Discounts/Carers
