Hi folks,
quick question.....
do I have to declare to the taxman any jobs i do that are just reimbursement jobs? ie haircuts, restaurant

ta:beer:

I would think it's better for you if you do - because you make a loss on these jobs and can offset the tax liability against any jobs where you actually make a profit.

3. How do I add new clients to ABAI - how should we answer this on a public forum?

I'd just put to phone them and ask if they have any more clients to add

I applied for my area, London and two others (one is back home) as they are all areas I could cover an actual shop at if I coincided it with going home to see family. It doesnt say you have to be in certain area so presume you can apply for any.

when i joined i had one client and prior to finding out what to do in here i emailed them. they emailed me back within one day and explained what to do and gave me two other clients to try. So I suggest email them once you have joined.

Re. the Bare calls. I take it they are actual telephone calls, I have not done a job for them yet, Are they good to work for, as a newbie would I find them much the same as GR of Gfk for example.

I have just phoned them and they said that the priority will be given to your own area but you can apply for any area and if they are short then you might get offered them.
