Change in Circumstances
What happens if I am paid too much Council Tax Support?
If you have been awarded too much Council Tax Support your entitlement will be recalculated.
The Council will deduct any amount of Council Tax Support that was not due to you from your Council Tax account. The Council will issue you with an amended Council Tax Bill increasing your monthly instalments to include the reclaimed amount.
If your Council Tax bill increases because you have been awarded too much Council Tax Support, you will be liable to pay the increase regardless of why it occurred.
