In the UK, a significant number of residents could be exempt from council tax or receive discounts due to specific medical conditions classified as severely mentally impaired (SMI). Conditions such as Multiple Sclerosis, learning disabilities, Parkinson's disease, dementia, and the long-term effects of severe strokes qualify for this exemption; however, individuals must obtain a doctor's diagnosis. Additionally, eligibility for certain benefits, such as Attendance Allowance or Disability Living Allowance, plays a crucial role in applying for these discounts, which can also include retrospective payments for those affected.
In the UK, many individuals unaware of potential council tax exemptions for those diagnosed as severely mentally impaired (SMI) can check eligibility for discounts.
Conditions classified under SMI include Multiple Sclerosis, learning disabilities, Parkinson's, dementia, and long-lasting stroke effects, requiring a doctor's diagnosis for exemption.
