Do foster carers have to pay the bedroom tax?

As a foster carer, you will not pay tax on the majority of what you earn.

However, you will receive an exemption from the bedroom tax for 1 spare room in your home.

We know tax can be complicated, which is why we help all our foster carers with their tax returns. We also run training courses to help with you the financial side of fostering.
