I hope this does not upset anyone but thought as there was a post mainly for us retired people to discuss what we do at our leisure that there should also be a post for those still working to post. Just as some might be jealous of our freetime, some might be missing work cammeradery.

HMRC will decide your employment status, Malcolm......it's not your choice.

It only said that about Class 2 contributions because you chose to tell them (incorrectly, possibly) that you are self employed.

If they decide that you are employed, two firms will be found not to have been following the tax and NI rules.

Write your comments here...So I'll just have to wait and see what they say.

You will indeed.....

Write your comments here...Can parking fines be offset against tax? I've had two work related parking charge notices for collecting orders from Macdonalds that have cost me a total of £123.

Dinnertogo office is 4 miles from where we are staying. So there and back 8 miles commute per day, that's about the only personal use, the rest is business. Also about 400 miles personal use holiday when we attended the National Rally in Shropshire.

Your holiday was in the current tax year (2016/2017),  your first tax return will be for 2015/2016, so you need to think about all the moving between sites you did before 6th April 2016 and any holiday travel in that tax year.

Much easier to keep a record of delivery mileage and calculate your expenses that way.  HMRC may well ask for your records, especially if you declare you have hardly any personal mileage.

If you haven't used the Government Gateway before, they will be sending you an activation code which you have to use the first time you log in.

I think the code expires after a certain time, so probably a good idea to use it as soon as possible.
