    it's not up to you to make sure he is prtb and tax compliant.

    you are covered by the prtb as a tenant whether he is registered or not, and if the revenue catch up to him through trawling through rent allowance records, all the better frankly.

    good luck with it!

    As long as you get him to sign the rent allowance form you should be ok. Not sure what happens when revenue finally get round to him though. I'm receiving rent allowance for a non-registered property but I'm not sure how much longer it will go on...

    All you have to do is an annual personal tax return. There is a section there where you detail any rental income along with any eligible deductions (the name of the form escapes me- I'll have a dig in some old threads here).

    Ps- nice to see people doing their utmost to keep everything 100% in order- its very easy to be complacent about things. I hope your tenant is working out for you.

    S.
