Hi, this is the Travel forum. If you are an employee then no, I don't believe there is tax relief.0

"Your employer can pay you up to £4 a week (£18 a month) to cover your additional costs if you have to work from home." - (to do this they would likely have to change your contract of employment to show you as a home worker)

before going down the route of asking your employer, are you saving any travel costs by not having to go to the office?1 -
Hello Caz3121.
Unfortunately, no. As my travel expensive were pre-paid (season ticket). Though, perhaps that is something I can claim back on to cover the additional expenses at home...?0 -
