I am advised by Revenue that as the amount of rent tax credit available to a taxpayer is dependent on the rent paid, it is not possible to provide a precise estimate for each €100 increase in the value of the credit.

Revenue has provided the data in the table below setting out estimated additional costs associated with a range of potential increases in the value of the credit.

It should be noted that these costs are calculated on a post-Budget 2025 basis.
