| Comment | This case is explicitly covered in the FAQ. Full council tax will be due, but the council will only pursue the non-student residents for it.

> If you live with someone who is not a student or who can be disregarded from Council Tax for any other reason you will not receive a discount on your bill. The student will be made non-liable for Council Tax purposes. This means that students are excluded from liability for Council Tax where they share liability for a property with non-students and that only the non-students in a property will receive a bill. The non-students will be responsible for making sure all Council Tax due is paid although they may be to reduce this amount by claiming Council Tax Reduction which is an income based reduction.
> Example: A student and two non-students jointly rent a flat. The student completes a Council Tax exemption/ discount form and supplies proof of student status, the student will not be held liable for Council Tax and the two non- students will be billed the full amount of Council Tax due. |
