Hi there,
I'm finally getting around to claiming rent relief for the past few years. What's the earliest year I can claim for. I think there's a four year limit, so I can claim back to 2006, or is in inclusive of this year, and this I can claim for 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2010?
I recently began claiming for 2010 via the online PAYE service and I understand that this will be applied in the form of a tax credit. However, in the past few weeks I have moved out of that property and back to my mother's house. Do I need to notify somebody or will my change of address suffice?
Also, one of the properties I rented spans 3 years, from 2007 to 2009. Do I fill in a form for each year with the amount I paid THAT year, or do I fill in each form exactly the same, with the dates of the entire tenancy and the total amount paid? The form asks for the date the tenancy commenced, and then the date it ceased and then the 'amount of rent payable'. It's not clear if they are looking for year by year details.
Finally, the landlord for the property rented for those three years was resident in the US. It says something on the form about deducting 20 percent of the rent I paid.....but then says something confusing about PAYE and tax credits.
Any help greatly appreciated
