rent a room scheme

[bluefinu]

Hi does anyone know if you can charge for bills or food on top of the 10,000 pa for the rent a room scheme and still be cleared by the tax office. And are they strict in getting tax returns back or can you back date a few years? Tks

total gross rent including food laundry cannot exceed 10k for tax free status. if you google "rent a room scheme" you will see it there.

Is it not the responsibility for the lodger to pay for their own food. Rent is rent everything else is separate from what I understand. if the lodger claims rent relief as a tax credit they will not get relief on bills or food.
