    No impact on your UC.

    Once she is 21 a non dependant deduction will be made from your Housing Element, unless you are on Daily Living PIP at that time, in which case you will be exempt from that deduction.

    The single person discount will end.

    Council Tax Reduction (what you call Council Tax Support) is decided on at a local level and each local authority has different rules. Meaning it's very hard to advise on individual cases from here.
