What happens if I am overpaid Council Tax Benefit?

Council Tax Benefit slightly differs to Housing Benefit, if you are awarded Council Tax Benefit the credit is deducted straight from your Council Tax account.
 
If you are overpaid Council Tax Benefit, the amount will be added back on to your Council Tax account and a revised demand notice will be issued.
 
For further details regarding paying your Council Tax demand, you can visit our Council Tax webpage or contact our Council Tax department on 01902 696664.
