Would this wash in practice. The sister is saying my sister let me live in her house rent free in return for a gift of €3k per annum!. What should happen is that your brother-in-law gives money to your sister who then gives you money on a monthly basis, this should keep you within gift tax limits.
also... from the NPPR website - it mentions divorse/separated but...
I'm divorced/separated - am I liable to pay the charge?
.If a person is divorced or separated (judicial separation agreement having been granted) he or she will not be liable to pay the charge where he or she resides in what used to be the family home as his or her principal private residence. Where the other party to the divorce or separation agreement does not reside in the original family home but retains an interest in the ownership of the property on foot of the divorce or separation agreement, the Act provides that this person will not be liable for the charge in respect of that property.
.... personally.. i do not pay NPPR, and pretty sure i don't have too.
Did you get that advice in writing from the revenue ,email or hard copy , I wouldnt rely on advice from a revenue official over the phone .I don't see how you can claim rent a room when your renting a room in a house that's not your PPR. I think you should take Brendan's advice , you may have no liability .. unless there is a clause I'm not aware of re: separation / divorce etc.
apparently conversations from the revenue are recorded! that's what it says when you ring them anyway!
