Second Adult Rebate
If someone else who lives with you is on a low income, you may be entitled to a reduction called Second Adult Rebate. The amount of income or savings you have doesn't matter.
You can claim this if you are responsible for the Council Tax and share your home with one or more adults, who are:
- Over 18 years old
- Not your spouse or partner (by partner we mean someone you live with as a couple).
- Not responsible for paying the Council Tax themselves
- Not joint tenants or joint owners
- Not paying you rent or board
- On benefit or a low income
You can claim provided you are not already receiving Council Tax Benefit. However, some people who are entitled to council tax benefit may also be entitled to a second adult rebate and may be better off claiming this instead.
