Council Tax change of circumstances 

Use the forms on our  Change of address page to report tenants moving in or out.

Use the forms on our  Council Tax reductions page to tell us that 

• you're now the only person over 18 in the property and you want to start claiming 25% Single Person Discount
• you're no longer the only person over 18 in the property and you want to stop claiming 25% Single Person Discount

If your circumstances have changed in another way and you think you might be able to pay less, you can find out about   Council Tax reductions for occupied properties and  Council Tax reductions for unoccupied properties.

For information about Council Tax when someone dies and how to report a death, see Council Tax when someone dies. 

Use our change of circumstances form to:

• change the name on your bill, or tell us we have got your name wrong

or to tell us that:

• your correspondence address has changed
• someone has moved into or out of your property
• you have sold a property that was previously unoccupied
• you have moved into a property you already owned
• something has changed that might affect a reduction you currently receive

You don't need to tell us about new adults moving in if you are currently paying the full Council Tax charge. 

If you are claiming Council Tax Support or Housing Benefit, you will need to tell our Benefits team about the change.

Further information on the types of changes you need to report if you are claiming Housing Benefit, Council Tax Support, or 2nd Adult Rebate (for example income related changes) and the online form to report the change can be found on the Benefits Change of Circumstance page.

Further information can be found on the Council Tax reductions for unoccupied properties page.
