to be fair elinor, william did mension income support, and if you are
entitled to that, you most likely are entitled to council tax benifit too.

That is not correct information William.  I am on Incapacity Benefit as i
took early ill health retirement from my job as a Physiotherapist and I also
have DLA.  It is a means Tested form of tax and the person will have to
declare their savings and incom to get assistance.

getting housing benefit and counsil tax if they are on Incapacity benefit
and DLA like most of us

This is a means tested benefit. If your friend gets housing benefit or
income support they will get help with council tax. If not in receipt  of
either as I'm not you pay the full amount. But if the accommodation is
fitted for disabled living you drop a band in the calculation. My heating
loss means I have specially loud door and phone bells so I qualify for that.

Hi list,
 
A friend asked if i would send a message to this list regarding a query
about their council tax.
 
They are Blind too and  receive Incapacity Benefit and Disability Living
Allowance. Their local Council have not yet made a descision about whether
they are entitled to Council Tax benefit but the Council have issued a bill
for payment. They're unemployed at the moment, so do people who are
unemployed and on benefits generally pay council tax?
 
Any help you can provide would be very much appreciated.
Thank you
 
Take care
 
James, Lyn, Nash and Twinny
