How your council tax is calculated
Council Tax is worked out on a daily basis. If you move home, you will be billed up to the date of the move at your old home by Manchester and from the date you moved into your new home by your new council.
Example
If you moved to a new property out of Manchester on 16 May 2008, we will bill you for your old property for the 45 days between 1 April 2008 and 15 May 2008 and your new council will charge you for 320 days, from 16 May 2008 to 31 March 2009.
Council Tax for a Band B property in Manchester from 1 April 2008 to 31 March 2009 is £989.08.
The charge for 45 days from 1 April 2008 to 15 May 2008 is worked out as follows. . .
£989.08 (yearly Council Tax amount) รท 365 (days in the year) X 45 (days lived in the property) = £112.68 (amount due).
Remember
Tell your new council you have moved so they can bill you for the 320 days from 16 May 2008 to 31 March 2009
