How do I receive trading and property income allowance?

"According to HMRC, you can claim trading allowance if you have trading income from:

  • Self-employment
  • Casual services
  • Hiring personal equipment

You can claim the property allowance if you have income from land or property.

You won't be able to claim the allowances if you have trade or property income from:

- A business that you or an individual connected to you owns or controls

- A partnership where you or individuals connected to you are partners

- Your employer, or your spouse's or civil partner's employer

You can't claim the property allowance if claim:

- Claim the tax reducer for finance costs such as mortgage interest for a residential property

- Deduct expenses from income from letting a room in your own home, instead of using the Rent a Room Scheme"
