Comment | As mentioned, a full time student is *exempt* entirely. Your flatmate then counts as a single occupant and should claim the 25% discount.
Now, you're going to be put in the slightly uncomfortable situation that you are not actually liable for any council tax at all, so your flatmate technically should pay it all. They might get a bit upset at this, given they expected to half it...
If you really wanted to, you could pay a third after the discount, which would mean they would pay what they expected to pay initially. But you don't have to. Getting on well with flatmates is worth a lot, though. |
