Any Self employed benefits ?

Tim_Nicholas

Does anyone know if there are any (new) benefits I can take advantage.

I am a contractor in the IT world, so invoice for my work and add VAT, which goes into the LTD company account. I then pay myself a salary of £450 pcm, and a dividend every 3 months or so.

I claim the usual 40p a mile, mobile phone, IT equipment, sustinence.

Currently my contract is in Germany, so claiming travel expenses to the Uk, living costs. Have been out here for 4 months so far.

Is there anything I can take advantage of ?

You may want to edit your post in the pensions section. You said you were self employed but you are not. Self employed get lower state pensions. Employed do not.
