We've been reviewing current entitlements to the single person discount on council tax.

This is a review on all households that receive a single person discount on their council tax bill.

The review is to make sure single person discounts are correct. Sometimes people forget to tell us if their situations change.

What will happen

If you have a single person council tax discount, you may get a letter from NEC Software Solutions.

The letter will ask if you still qualify for this discount.

NEC Software Solutions is the company carrying out this review for us. They help councils manage services like council tax, housing benefit and council housing.

What you should do

You should reply by the deadline in the letter or in any reminder you receive.

You can reply online, by telephone or by post.

Your letter will have the contact details and instructions.

If you don’t reply, then we may remove the discount from your council tax account.
