confusing about travel expenses claim

As part of my job I have to travel to different locations and claim travel expenses. I noticed from my payslips that they take basic salary and add my travel expenses to it and put them together to my gross salary and then deduct a tax. Is that normal? I thought that travel expenses should not be included in the gross and just my basic salary should be taxed but not together with travel expenses? Please could someone explain? Thanks

AFAIK such expenses should not be taxed0

Have you actually worked out the tax that you should be paying and compared it against what you do pay or are you assuming that you have been taxed on it?This is a system account and does not represent a real person. To contact the Forum Team email forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com0
