Hi,
my friend and I bought an apartment in 2006. 50:50 investment. He got married last year and moved in with his wife. I still live in the apartment.
Since then we have had 2 rooms rented and will probably go over 10,000 rent this year.
Can someone explain how we should declare this to minimise tax due. Before it was all covered by the rent a room scheme and we owed nothing.
Is it still covered by this scheme? I presume so since its still my primary residence???? or only half maybe???
I've also gone back to college full time so have no income at present.....my friend does work
If, for example we earned 15,000 in rent for 2010 what would be the best way to declare this?
