New to all this Tax stuff...


Hi guy's, just a quick question for you, I am Employed by a company 39 hours per week on a fixed salary and my Tax is PAYE.
I have spoken to people who have told me there are certain things you can claim for even as an Employee, not sure if this is accurate but if somebody gives me some pointers that would be great.

Since when has the world of computer software design been about what people want? This is a simple question of evolution. The day is quickly coming when every knee will bow down to a silicon fist, and you will all beg your binary gods for mercy.

    what did these people say you / they could claim?

    basically its expected that employers pay the cost of running their business

    however there are a few but it depends upon what you do

    .. laundering your uniform
    .. professional fees if essential for the job
    .. business miles allowance
  • also using your own tools

    My role within the company is IT Manager, I do use my own tools at work because I don't have a support engineer and will not for the foreseeable future so I do all the techi work as well as managing the IT dept, not a bad thing beats paper work.
    I have also a £3000 loan on the go for the Skills Train doing several IT qualifications, I was wondering if I could get some relief on that?
