What we will need

You will not need to apply for this exception because it is applied automatically to those receiving the existing Job Related Discount for Living in Armed Forces Accommodation.

Applying for the exception

If you already receive a Job Related Discount for Living in Armed Forces Accommodation you will not receive a premium charge. If you believe you should receive this discount and in turn, be excepted from a premium charge, please see more information and how to apply for the discount below:
