In this section
There are a number of ways you can get money off your council tax bill. This section provides details on the different discounts, reliefs and exemptions you can apply for.
- Who lives in your property and your circumstances will determine whether you qualify for a discount or exemption or not
- You will not automatically receive a discount or exemption - you need to apply
- If we approve your discount or exemption, we will send you an amended council tax bill
Claiming a discount or exemption when you know you are not entitled is fraud. You can be prosecuted for this.
If your circumstances change at any point, and you're no longer entitled to a discount or exemption, you must tell us within 21 days by emailing local.taxation@peterborough.gov.uk.
