Rent Relief Query - HELP!!

    I'm looking to claim rent relief from the PAYE online system as I've been renting since Feb 2011, however it says that I'm not eligable for rent relief unless I've been renting on or before 07/12/2010.

    Is there any way I can claim rent relief if I didn't start renting until Feb 1st 2011 as I seems unfair that I can't when I've been renting now for over a year and a half?

    Any help much appreciated

    Thanks

    RP

    Hi

    Bad news I'm afraid there is not alot you can do see below from the revenue website. There will be a lot more credits phased out in the next budget to I would say to :-(

    Tax years 2011 to 2017 inclusive

    Credit for rent paid will be withdrawn on a phased basis over the next 7 years.
    The credit for the years 2011 onwards applies to individuals who were renting a propety on 7 December 2010. No credit is due to individuals who began renting after 7 December 2010.
