    I am renting an apartment - my new tenants moved in 6 weeks ago. They are now asking me to sign a form for rent relief. Do I need to sign? I thought it would suffice if the tenants send their form with the address of the apartment to the revenue? :confused:
    And what consequences does this bring to me? :cool:

    Are you sure it is not Rent Allowance?

    The form for rent relief doesn't require a signature from the landlord; the only information they might need from you is your PPS Number.

    As above, they are either asking to sign a rent allowance form or they just have the wrong form.

    Yeah it does, Section 2: for completion by the landlord or landlord's agent, form SWA 3.

    That's rent allowance not tax relief.

    I am registered with PRTB - and I am inquiring with the tenant currently what they are looking for - allowance or relief. Cheers. :o

    Tenants are looking for rent supplement (sorry for the misinformation) and its the form SWA3. Any comments on that? :confused:

    If you're registered and paying taxes on the income from rental, it shouldn't have any adverse affects on you, as far as I know.

    Have not done tax returns on the rent income (which is not really an income as it covers the mortgage). What is the quickest way to do a tax return?
