Nursing home expenses – tax relief ?

I am a PAYE worker paying monthly nursing home fees for my father – Is it possible for me to get the tax relief due on these fees through the PAYE system during the tax year instead of waiting until at the end of the tax year?

Yes, in certain circumstances relief may be granted during the year. You should contact your local tax office with details of your claim. The nursing home in question must provide qualified nursing care on-site on a 24-hour per day basis.

In all cases you must submit a completed Med 1 Form in the normal way at the end of each tax year
