Not sure if I'm eligible for the 25% discount on council tax

Me and my sibling have bought a property together as joint owners. However, as current plans stands, I'll probably be living at the property on my own (for 6 months or up til about a year) so I'm wondering if I'll be eligible to get the 25% discount on Council Tax. How does it work? What sort of proof does the council require from you to prove it's just you living on your own at the moment?

When you move into the property just inform the council that you are the sole occupier.

They won’t ask for any proof. You can register online at many councils so just state single person.
