HEATING AND LIGHTING CLAIM

[shelly04]

Hi guys,
Just about finished my tax on line, just wanted to clarify, I pay direct debit for electricity, partner dd for gas monthly, during the tax year I worked 15 hours a week, how do you work out what you have to claim? do you

add up the twelve months for gas and electricity and multiply by the 12% as stated in hmrc website?

Yes just follow the percentages in the HMRC download - it's in files at the top of the forum

i do 14 hrs a week and my heating and elec come out at £1.91 a week. My heating is oil though but if yours is close to that then that should be right?!
i use the calculations in the ncma accounts book
