You may get second adult rebate if you are of pension age and you share your home with one or more adults on a low income who are:
- not your partner or civil partner
- aged 18 or over
- not paying you rent
- not paying council tax themselves
- not a joint tenant or owner with you
Examples of second adults include grown up children, friends and relatives.
If you are a full-time student, you may claim up to 100% second adult rebate.
How to make a claim
You should make a claim for Council Tax Reduction.
