I see little hope, but perhaps your mother could apply for a waiver of this debt, in whole or in part, and certainly a repayment plan. You or your mother must request this yourself. http:\/\/www.belastingdienst.nl\/wps\/wcm\/connect\/ bldcontentnl\/standaard_functies\/prive\/contact\/rechten_en_plichten_bij_de_belastingdienst\/ acties_van_de_aangever\/kwijtschelding_van_belasting\n\n\u003ch4\u003e Questioner\u003c\/h4\u003e \nThat is correct, that I\/my mother are responsible for the accuracy, but this was\/is not indicated as such, that an independent living space must be occupied, to the tax authorities.\n\n Now, after 3 years, they are going back on it and they cannot be persuaded to show any leniency, in the form of a waiver or a division.\n\n\u003ch4\u003e Lawyer\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n Well, the conditions for qualifying for the allowance are listed on the website, see http:\/\/www.belastingdienst.nl\/wps\/wcm\/connect\/bldcontentnl\/belastingdienst\/prive\/toeslagen\/huurtoeslag\/huurtoeslag_2016\/voorwaarden_2016\/voorwaarden_huurtoeslag_2016\n\n And your mother must apply for a separate waiver see\n http:\/\/www.belastingdienst.nl\/wps\/wcm\/connect\/bldcontentnl\/belastingdienst\/prive\/inbelasting\/belasting_betalen_terugvragen\/betalen_aan_de_belastingdienst\/ niet_of_te_laat_betalen\/kwijtschelding\/\n\n However, before the waiver can be granted, the objections would have to be waived and the debt would have to be collectible.\n\n","brand":"Rechtswinkel.nl","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55017314124125,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.rechtswinkel.nl\/en\/products\/vragen-45886-hierbij-wil-ik-het-volgende-vragen-tot-maart-2013-bewoonde-mijn-moeder-een-zelfstandige-woonruimte","provider":"Rechtswinkel.nl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
