Hello, posting for advice, as DH and I have no idea about any of the ins and outs of council tax... we know that they send you a bill, and you pay it, and that's it!
My MIL has been talking this afternoon about finding a flat/annexe (renting) to move into. DH and I don't think it will be easy for her, though, as she has been living on a caravan site for more than ten years, and hasn't paid any council tax in that time. This is because you are technically only supposed to "live" in a mobile home for 11 months of the year max, and have a permanent address elsewhere, on which you pay council tax (this is based on my minimal knowledge, I may be completely wrong). MIL does not have an address elsewhere, but now wants to move into a private rental again.
AIBU to think she's a bit stuck here? Surely the council will want to charge her the ten years of missing council tax once she is in a private rental, and her name appears on bills again?

AIBU?
To think my MIL can't possibly rent privately again after not paying council tax for 10+ years?
