The basics
What is the working from home rebate?
HMRC offers tax relief if you were required to work from home and had extra household costs (like heating, electricity or broadband). Even if your employer didn’t reimburse you, you may still be entitled to a refund.
You’re likely to have a claim if:
- You worked remotely because of your job, not by choice
- You paid extra household costs as a result
- Your employer didn’t fully reimburse you for them
Still went into work some of the time? You may also be owed a mileage rebate for the journeys you made, or a phone costs rebate for work calls on your own mobile.
