estudante deslocado — student living away from home
The tax authority's term for a student aged 25 or under who studies at an institution in the national education system more than 50 km from their family's permanent home and rents accommodation where they study. The status lets you deduct 30% of the rent paid from IRS, up to €400 a year.
Where you come across it. The tenancy agreement, accommodation invoices, registering the status on the Portal das Finanças, the IRS return.
The status has to be registered on the Portal das Finanças every year, and the invoices have to be marked there as rent for a student living away from home by the end of February of the following year. Without these two steps there is no deduction, however much was paid.
