    Hey Guys,

    Just wondering if you can claim tax credits for the actual Exam fee's?

    I see that they cover the different MCSE courses around but its unclear about the Exam Fees if you are not doing a course. I will have done 7 MCP's by Thursday so its definitely worth claiming if possible.

    Cheers.

    No idea tbh, your best bet is to call and ask. Sure let us know how you get on, would be interesting to know for the future.

    Dear Colin,

    There is no tax relief due for registration fees, course literature, exam fees, college facility and/or utility fees, etc. Income tax relief is available for the actual tuition fees only. The bursars of the colleges are familiar with what qualifies or not for relief and prepare the relevant receipts for support of tax relief.

    Yours sincerely

    Thats the reply i got from them yesterday after waiting a week. It would have been nice to get a bit of money back but its only the Training that can be claimed for :rolleyes:
