Working From Home

I have been working from home since the beginning of Covid-19 and are claiming the weekly allowance. Now I only work from home 1 day per week but in December I am retiring but may work from home on a part time basis. Do I need to inform HMRC of my change in circumstances or even cancel the allowance? If so, how do I contact them?

    Its for the whole of the tax year, even if you only wfh on one day.

    So nothing to do until next tax year.

  • Assuming you are WFH due to Covid-19 then all you need to do is make sure any tax code(s) you get for the 2022:23 tax year no longer include any allowance for WFH.

    Obviously this may change if Covid-19 gets worse and the government decide people should WFH where possible after 5 April 2022.
