    I have a quick question I couldnt find an answer to anywhere else.

    About two years ago I was on placement from college and lived in Galway renting a room in a house. I was earning money and so paying Prsi.

    Am I entitled to claim Rent Relief on this? Or has it gone to far past the date/I was on placement?
    Thanks for any info.

    Do you mean rent relief as in Tax relief or Social Welfare relief?
    If its tax relief then yes you would be entitled to relief however you must have been paying tax in order to benefit from this claim. If you paid Tax then all you need to do is fill out a 'Rent 1' form and submit it into your local tax office. You can backdate claims for Rent relief within the last four years. :)
