SEISS and compliance review even though I met the criteria
I've had a letter today about my 3 SEISS payments in 2020 (2) and 2021 (1) and a compliance review.

Then I submitted 2020-2021, next one is 2021-2022. I didn't…

Didn't work again until Feb 2021 on a short contract which I was offered to turn perm, and took due to not feeling confident in the market any longer. I took interest only payment holidays and on my 3rd…

FFP2 Masks DIY vs Pharmacy
Apart from the rip off price difference - is there any difference in these 2 face masks? Flying to Italy who require masks which comply to FFP2 standards - but only once you actually land in Italy!

Changing tax code back after claiming wfh relief
I was required to work from home in the tax year 21/22, so I claimed the working-from-home tax relief.

I am not eligible for the tax relief in the 22/23 tax…
