Hi

 

I decided I would rent a room out in my home to a friend to help me out.

 

I think I have made an error as I just used a standard tenancy agreement and just read that this is different to the

 

rent-a-room-tax scheme...

 

Also I am in need to claim esa, or would the rent payments exempt me.

 

Hoping someone can clarify. So disappointe in myself for making a hash of this.

Thank you. Yes of course. I just wondered how much they deduct from the rent - to see if it is worth bothering with all the abuse to claim esa.

DCA's view debtors as suckers, marks and mugs

NO DCA has ANY legal powers whatsoever on ANY debt no matter what it's Type

and they

are NOT and can NEVER  be BAILIFFS. even if a debt has been to court..

If everyone stopped blindly paying DCA's Tomorrow, their industry would collapse overnight...

Hi Clear33

 

You may have an issue if you have as stated issued the Lodger with a normal Tenancy Agreement as that would give them the same rights as a Tenant not a Lodger.

 

Have you had a wee look at our guide as the PDF has a sample Lodger Agreement: http://www.consumeractiongroup.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?455222-Social-Housing-Council-Housing-Housing-Association-Housing-Trust-etc-Information

 

You really need to get a Lodger Agreement signed (bear in mind if they know there rights they may refuse due to the normal tenancy agreement signed)

Thank you for drawing my attention to this thread again.

 

 

I am not being alerted to replies.

 

 

My tenant is also my friend and so I don't think it matters, lodger or tenant to us.

 

 

I was just making sure that I would still receive the tax free allowance and was not breaking any tax rules etc.

 

 

if I had a "tenant" rather than a "lodger".

 

 

Many thanks.
