Covid-19 spurs working from home tax relief claims

摘要

On 14 October 2020, HMRC boasted that in the space of 11 days nearly 55,000 individuals had made a claim for tax relief on expenses incurred as a result of being required to work from home during the Covid-19 pandemic. That is 5,000 a day, a number that could well rise in the coming weeks as more people are required to work from home again due to tightening restrictions in particular regions around the UK.
