How to report council tax fraud

Council tax fraud happens when someone deliberately gives false or misleading information so that they can pay less or no council tax. This includes:

• claiming to live in a single-person household to get the single person discount when more than one person lives in the household
• pretending to be a student to get the student discount when they are not a student
• failing to tell us that they no longer need to claim a council tax reduction, discount or council tax support.
