    Thanks for the reply. I know when i was front line staff we got issued those but last 3 years been working under engineering staff who are not entitled to them. Was hoping to be able to sort out in one letter but thinking i might be a few for this.


    Tax office might not know not entitled.
    Best is to give them a call

    Can you still claim back if you choose to wash your uniform at home. As I take my apron home to wash, because if I dont the recruitment agent who comes in the morning, takes my nice one and gives it to her temporary workers.

    btw how much can you claim back per year?

    do you wear a uniform (read the first post on page one and the links therein if you are unsure) or is your apron the only thing you are asking about?

    why do you say "choose" - does you employer provide laundry facilities at work?
    what industry do you work in? Why do you need an apron - is it personal protective equipment?
    read the guide for the rate

    read post #1, or for that matter do a search on "asda", you are not the first Asda employee to ask

    Hi folks
    Please can anyone confirm please, if Uniform rebate is to be applied for each year, or does this continue? (unless you change jobs of course) thanks in advance.

    Once you have applied and received notification from HMRC,you tax code will change. This will continue until either you leave that employment or tell HMRC you no longer qualify for it.

    Uniform Washer I've been Money Tipped! Xmas Saver!
    Woohoo!!!! Finally got around to doing this, I've been in a uniformed role for 5 years now, got a very tasty £250 back....

    However, I am very frustrated that I forgot to ask for the money in a lump sum, so instead they changed my tax code :(

    Oh well, at least I got it, thanks MSE!!! :money:
    :j Comping on & off since 31/08/12 :beer:
    I comp for fun... and to kill the boredom!
