in Cutting tax
Hi there,
I am formerly a freelance advisor/engineer working in the nuclear industry - this year the client blanket banned the use of Ltd companies and I have been forced to go onto a zero hours PAYE contract on a flat rate of £31 an hour @ 40hrs a week. Unfortunately with Nuclear being very tightly regulated, the client wants a lot of control and input - it is hard to pass the CEST tool in the environment as the client essentially dictates my work to me and provides me with a lot of approved tools and software - although I do provide a lot
I'm from Aberdeen, and currently working a 10 and 4 rota on a project in South East England.
Since starting this job in late June, I've had a outlay of:
£2500 on courses.
£1350 on flights back home.
£2100 in accommodation.
£600 in specialist tooling.
£600 in specialist software
and about 3300 miles of vehicle travel.
Previously these expenditures would be placed through the LTD company. Has anyone had any experience on how easy it is to claim this back from HMRC as PAYE?
