    Hi All

    Desperately trying to fill my tax return in for mystery shopping. I was told it was easy but so far i am disagreeing! lol. I really hope someone can help me. I just need to know is mystery shopping classed as providing services under contracts for professional or other services and when it asks about student loan repayments does it mean how much have i paid this tax year or ever through my main employer? Either way, i don't have a clue how much, but i could make an educated guess if i won't get into trouble if i am out a bit?

    Hi,

    Its not classed as providing services under contracts for professional or other services, as for your student loan you need to be accurate or you'll possibly end up with a bill.
    You wont get into trouble but i'm fairly certain you wont want to be paying any more than you should.

  • Do you know if it is the amount i have paid this tax year, or through my whole employment?

    Its just the amount you paid in the tax year 6th April 2008- 5th April 2009, as thats the only period you're assessing.
  • Phew that's good then. I can get that info. I'm so worried I am going to do something wrong by accident and then they charge me for it, i've never done one before.

    Has ANYONE got a need for decongestant tablets...

    How many calories in each? If I take enough, maybe I'll look like I need weight loss tablets (bit too skinny)!!:rotfl:

    And me a scouser...
    ...who admits to having had a perm and a shell suit (worn at the same time)...way back (in my defence!) :rotfl:


    Oh my God - not you too?!!

    I thought it was just me who'd had a perm AND a shellsuit at the same time!

    I once had a perm & when I came out of the hairdresser's my husband said " B****y hell, you look older than your mother!!"

    I sent him to the chemist right away to get a bottle of Twink, and went home & straightened it!

    Next day in work everyone said "I thought you were getting a perm?"

    "Nah - changed my mind" said I. ;)

    I'm sure it wasn't just us Scousers who had them either..........!:eek:
    ;)
