The Cabinet Office requires Council Tax (CT) and Electoral Register (ER) data, for the 2024/25 council tax single person discount matching, to be submitted from Monday 2 December 2024. The data submission is applicable for all councils across England, Scotland and Wales.
| Stage | Date | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Upload Council Tax data and Electoral Register data to the NFI RECHECK web application | From Monday 2 December 2024 | Matches will normally be available as soon as both datasets are successfully loaded and the privacy notice compliance declaration has been completed in the web application. |
| Official deadline for submission | Friday 17 January 2025[footnote 1] | This is the date set by NFI as being the official end of the exercise. This date is set so that all CT and ER data received is collated and the ReCheck and AppCheck data pots can be refreshed. Data is accepted after this date, but it may be reported externally as being late unless a valid reason is provided. |
| NFI matches available | Immediately after the upload of both datasets |
