Where can I find the Council Tax Exemption Form?

If you are a full-time student you may be eligible for an exemption from paying your council tax or a reduction in your council tax. The decision will be up to the Council, but we can help you by providing you with your application, usually called a “Council Tax Disregard”.

You can only apply for this once you are enrolled and in attendance, either in person or virtually and you must be a current full-time student to be eligible. You can find the form on the student portal once you login (see below for further details). If you have any issues e.g. not seeing your form, please contact Student Records sturec@dumgal.ac.uk.

Where on Student Portal do I find my form?

When you logged in you will find your council tax exemption form under the Account Menu (in the main menu) and also on your Account Page. The link is labelled “Council Tax Exemption Form” this page will provide you with a link to download a generated form you can print out.

Please note that this will only appear after you have been marked in attendance on a register, so if you have only been marked in attendance today check back tomorrow and you should be able to see the block and download the form.
