in Cutting tax
Hi
Trying to work out of this is would allow for fuel and mileage rates tax allowance.
I pick someone up from his regular home who has special needs, we then spend 3 days together each week, to give some respite for his Mum back home.
I appreciate mileage couldnt be claimed on the journey from my house to his to collect him.
But during those 3 days we stay in hotels around the UK (he likes to travel) and an average mileage per trip would be 250.
He gets a direct payment and employs me as such to work with him.
Can I claim the tax allowance against my mileage?
Thanks

Are the payments that he makes to you subject to tax?0

Yes, tax and NI as if I am an employee
He also has to start to do a pension for me - this I am not fussed or bothered about but apparently there is no choice.0
