    There is about a 4 week backlog in Revenue- but the amount you get back is 20% of gross rent to a maximum of EUR 330 per annum (i.e. its not a massive amount unfortunately- but its better in your pocket than in the taxmans).

    Note, you have to be liable for tax to get the credit in the first place. If you don't earn enough to pay tax, you won't get the credit.

    Also, as the tax system is annual, you get the full credit for 2006.
