    Council Tax Reduction is decided on at a local level, so it's impossible to advise on individual cases from here.

    You can try a benefits calculator to estimate any Housing Benefit entitlement. I believe one or two of them also have local area CTR information.

    Fill it in as though you are already retired on your expected income.
