Q. Myself and My Husband are Both Employed by the Same Company, We Work from Home, but Our Employer didn’t Pay us the £6 Per Week Working from Home Allowance. We Also Jointly Own a Let Property. Can We Claim the Home Working Allowance Against Our Salaries and Also Against Our Property Rental Income?
A:If you are required to work from home under your employment contracts but you aren’t paid the working from home allowance, you can claim £6 per week each as a deductible expense on your tax returns. You can’t claim a similar deduction from your rental income, as that deduction is only relevant to employment income.
