Hi I was wondering if anyone could assist me. I have been off work for nearly 2 years. Currently claiming pip and UC. I am paying council tax via UC which Is in arrears. I am looking to move out where all bills are included. I will not be able to pay the full council tax arrears. Has anyone got any advice?

    Council Tax is a priority bill. If you're in arrears and can't pay the amount they ask for because of financial hardship you can ask them to reduce the amount. https://www.gov.uk/council-tax-arrears

    UC doesn't just stop if you return to work. Whether there's any entitlement will depend on your circumstances.
