TAX rebate on Accomodation???
Do not know if this is a thing, maybe it's just wishful thinking.
Can I claim any tax rebate on my accommodation costs?
I will be working in Auckland on a working visa, renting a property in NZ whilst owning a property in UK.
Does this mean I am working away from home (permanent residence), and can therefore claim a tax deduction on the accommodation costs in NZ?
Note: the company will not be paying me any benefit for this, all coming from my pocket.

Re: TAX rebate on Accomodation???
I would look at the fact that you are not main occupier of the property in the UK and if you have tenants do you in fact owe the tax man in the UK money. Rules on owning property in UK whilst out of the country changed last year so you really do need to be clued up on it.
As claiming tax deduction not something anyone has ever asked about before. You need to speak to an accountant that know the ins and outs of UK and NZ tax law.
