    Council Tax Reduction is decided on at a local level and each local authority has different rules for this. They can and do change the criteria as well.

    It's very hard to advise on individual cases from here.

    I'd recommend contacting a local welfare rights organisation who will be familiar with the local rules & can look at your bill to see whether it is correct or incorrect.

    As Council Tax is a priority bill, I'd get in touch with someone local ASAP.
