Access Islington – council tax enquiries

Due to technical issues, Access Islington is currently unable to help with council tax queries over the phone or at our hubs.

You can still manage your council tax online through My Islington, including viewing your bill and making payments.

We’re working to resolve this as quickly as possible and are very sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.

If you need to speak to someone about council tax, please try again later.

Foster carers exemption

From 1 April 2018, all approved foster carers that live in Islington, including those who foster through the Shared Lives scheme, do not have to pay council tax in Islington. 

If you are a foster carer and your household does not receive a zero balance bill for 2018 and subsequent years, please call 020 7527 2633. 

For support and advice on applying for council tax discounts, or if you are a foster care and your household receives a council tax bill, call 020 7527 2633.
