Reviewing Council Tax discounts and exemptions

Wirral Council regularly reviews all customers who receive Council Tax discounts and exemptions. This is to ensure discounts and exemptions are still valid and our information is up-to-date.

These reviews may be carried out by email. Any surveys about your discount or exemption will come from ecitizenfinance@wirral.gov.uk. The email will contain a link for you to update or verify your details.
