To qualify both properties must be in England, Wales or Scotland and you must:
- be required by your employer to work from the second property
- be responsible for paying Council Tax bills at both properties (unless the property is provided by the Ministry of Defence or for a minister of religion to perform their duties)
- not be a director or a partner in the company providing the accommodation (unless it's non-profit making or charitable)
When you apply we’ll need:
- evidence that you pay Council Tax at a second property
- evidence that you're required to live in the property for your job (such as an employment contract)
You must continue paying while we decide and cancel your discount within 21 days if your situation changes.
