Council Tax Reduction Description

What is Council Tax Reduction?

Council Tax Reduction can help reduce the amount of Council Tax you need to pay if you are on a low income, even if you are working. The amount of support you receive depends on your household circumstances, including your income, savings, the people who live with you and the Council Tax you are charged. Since April 2023, eligible working-age residents in Babergh and Mid Suffolk can receive up to 100% reduction in their Council Tax bill, with support for pension-age residents continuing under the Government's prescribed scheme.
