The property owner or tenant is responsible for paying council tax. If this is your parents home i.e. they are the owner or tenants the council should write to them not to you. If you are the owner/tenant then you are liable for council tax but you may be able to claim rent and housing benefit.

You are now an adult so the council will be reassing any benefits your family group receive. You need to see them to prove you have no income so that they can update their records etc.
