Closed petition Increase the work from home expense flat rates for self-employed people

Currently the simplified working from home rates for self-employed people who work from home are £10-26 a week. These rates haven't changed in a number of years and with the recent hikes in energy bills and other household costs, these rate need to be increased too.

More details

These rates haven't changed in a long time and the costs of working from home have increased since these rates were set. Increasing these rates will make it simpler for self-employed workers to reclaim a greater proportion of the cost of working from home.
