in Cutting tax
Please be patient, have just joined the forum and not sure what I am doing, however here goes.
I am self employed and registered as a window cleaner with Inland Revenue and would like some advice relating to travel expenses.
I use my vehicle for my window cleaning rounds and believe I can claim 40p a mile for the costs incurred in doing this work. As window cleaning does not take up all of my time I also do metalwork with a local company.
My question is, as a self employed person, am I also allowed to claim 40p a mile for travelling to and from this company. Many thanks in advance for any advice given

If metalwork travel is simply home to work, then no, that's normal commuting and isn't allowable.0

Where is your place of business for the metal work?
If you bring it home to do it then it should be allowable?r0
