How Second Adult Rebate is calculated
Second Adult Rebate is calculated differently to Council Tax
Benefit and is not based on the income, capital of circumstances of
you and your household. Instead, Second Adult Rebate is based
solely on the gross income of your "second adult". The table
below gives details on the weekly percentage reduction in your
Council Tax based on your "second adults" total gross weekly
income. Please note, if you are treated as having more than
one "second adult", their total weekly income is added
together. You are not automatically entitled to this
reduction and will have to make a valid claim for Benefit.
