I am full time student and i live in a share house with professionals. Do I Have to pay council tax?

We Answered:

NO! You are liable to pay your share of the council tax - BUT if you provide a Student Exemption Certificate from your place of learning, all the while you are on the course you are exempt from paying. You must make contact with your local council and get the certificate to them ASAP. The other professionals will have to split the bill amongst themselves. But please note, the exemption only applies for the duration of the course. Once the course finishes you then have to stump up you share.

If you live in students housing you share a room with your roomie each day she bring a diffrt guy to house?

We Answered:

If you live in university housing there are probably rules against guys sleeping over. It is a violation of your space to have this guy in your room. Since someone (you, your folks, a scholarship) is paying for that housing, you have a right to not have this guy in your room. I would report it and/or ask for a new room assignment. Also, if she's bringing a different guy to the house everyday, that's a personal saftey issue for you. You don't know what kind a creep-a-zoid he might be. He could be dangerous.
