If your circumstances change after applying for a Council Tax discount or exemption, it's important to notify East Lothian Council within 21 days. Changes like a child turning 18 or someone moving into your household could affect your eligibility.
Here's a quick overview of what you need to know:
| Change in Circumstances | Action Required |
|---|---|
| Child in household turns 18 | Inform Council Tax team |
| Someone moves into your home | Inform Council Tax team |
| Change in your status (e.g., student leaving) | Inform Council Tax team |
| Any changes affecting the composition of your household | Inform Council Tax team |
Delaying to inform the council might result in overpayments that you could be required to repay. For further guidance or to report a change, you can complete the online change in circumstances form.
