Working-from-home tax relief if I am PAYE and sole trader?

in Cutting tax
I have a full-time PAYE job which has required me to work from home since March 2020. I also do freelance work and have registered as a sole trader so will have to do a self assessment for the first time for the 2020/21 tax year.
Simple question, is the additional tax relief for working from home still applicable to me for my full-time job?

Yes. I started a new job right at the start of lockdown, so the entire staff have been WFH due to Covid. I would otherwise have been working in an office.Dazed_and_C0nfused said:Were you WFH due to Covid-19?0 -
Yes it is. You may also be able to claim something for your self employment:
