Life insurance and tax deduction

I am self employed and I have a life insurance, critical illness and income protection policies. I am not sure if the premiums paid monthly is tax deductible? I would highly appreciate any information.:beer:

    Hi Presh

    I am an IFA so please do not take this post as advice as that has a specific meaning for regulated people like me.

    If you are self employed the answer is no.

    The route is to have a limited company and then get an IFA who specialises in this to write the policies from the company.For example life cover could be an employee benefit in such as instance and as the company awards it then it would be tax deductible.

    Sorry if this isn't the answer you wanted to hear.
    I am an Independent Financial Adviser. For regulated individuals like me there are rules on giving financial advice. Therefore any posts I make are meant to be helpful but are not financial advice.
