Ukrainian nationals with Homes for Ukraine visa

If you’re a Ukrainian national with a Homes for Ukraine visa and looking for your own property to rent, you can apply for a Council Tax discount.  

This discount does not apply to other schemes such as The Ukraine Family Scheme or The Ukraine Extension Scheme. 

 

Who can apply? 

You’ll be entitled to a 50% discount from your Council Tax if all of the following apply: 

  • you're a Ukrainian national
  • you're living in the UK under the Homes for Ukraine sponsorship scheme
  • you’re living in your own accommodation (not in your sponsor’s home)
  • any other adult in the property is also living in the UK under the Homes for Ukraine sponsorship scheme 

If you're on a low income, you can check if you can get more money off your Council Tax. 

 

How to apply 

You’ll need:   

  • your Council Tax reference number (if you have registered for Council Tax)
  • names and date of birth of all adults living in the property  
  • copies of the Homes for Ukraine visa for all adults living in the property
