We've been reviewing current entitlements to the single person discount on council tax.
Review now closed
We recently completed a review of council tax accounts with single person discount. This review is now closed.
If you were receiving the single person discount on your council tax bill, you may have received a letter regarding the review of your entitlement. The review was carried out to ensure that council tax discounts are accurate, as changes in personal circumstances are not always reported.
The review was managed by NEC Software Solutions, who work closely with local authorities on council tax, housing benefit, and council housing matters.
For more information, refer to the contact details in your letter or visit the NEC website.
What happens now
If you did not respond to your letter or reminder within the required timeframe, you may have received a subsequent letter informing you that your single person discount had been removed from your council tax account.
If your discount has been removed and you are the only person over 18 in your household, you will need to apply for single person discount again.
