Mortgage interest relief & rental income deduction

I have a mortgage interest allowance on my investment property; in 2007 I paid €8000 in mortgage interest and received €1000 in mortgage interest relief



Can I deduct the full €8000 when calculating my rental income tax payable? or just €7000?
 
I don't know where the 7000 comes from.

All interest paid to buy or upgrade an investment property is allowed as a deduction from rental income.

If the 1000 means TRS relief, then this only applies to people who own and live in their PPR.
 
...but you must also repay to the Revenue the €1000 you have received in mortgage interest relief.
 
Also, you can only deduct the mortgage interest if you're registered with the PRTB.
