Rejected petition Tax rebate for pensioners paying for their care

Introduce tax rebate for pensioners paying for their care in a care home or at home

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

We can't accept your petition because we aren't sure what you mean by "tax rebate". A tax rebate normally refers to a payment from HMRC because you have overpaid tax.

You could start a new petition calling for payments for care to be tax deductible (not count towards income tax) if that's what you would like to see happen.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
