Occupied annexe

If your property has an annexe or a self-contained unit similar to a granny flat and the property is occupied by a relative you can apply for a council tax discount or exemption. The type of discount you may be entitled to receive will depend on whether the relative who lives in the property (who is in occupation) is dependent on being cared for or not.

If the annexe or self-contained unit and is occupied by a relative who is dependent on being cared for (a dependant relative), you can apply for a council tax exemption.

If the annexe is occupied by a relative then a 50% discount applies.
