Option 3
This scheme looks purely at whether you are working and if so, what your weekly earnings are.
Your entitlement to Council Tax Support is based on which band your earned income falls within. (Subject to non-dependant deductions where applicable). A banded scheme means that small changes in your earned income will not necessarily change your entitlement to Council Tax Support.
If you and your partner (if you have one), are not working, you will fall into the first band.
