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.

• you’re living in your own accommodation (not in your sponsor’s home)

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
