Hi,I an on uc and pip both high and my soon to be 19yr old son has put in a claim for carers for me (both live in my house)ge is also going to put a claim in for uc for himself so will this effect my council tax support?I have lost the single part due to him being an adult now but wondering if it will go down again

Many thanks

    Council Tax Reduction is decided on at a local level with each local authority having different rules.

    So it's extremely difficult to advise on individual cases from here.

    I'd suggest a local trained benefits advisor, who will be familiar with the local system and can check bills are correct.
