Hi,
My husband and I have a company, he owns 100% of the capital and I own none.
As the spouse of a propriety director I am not entitled to claim the employee tax credit.
But I have been offered a part time role in a totally separate organisation where I will be an employee.
I thought I would be able to claim the Employee Tax Credit for this employment but the tax office have just told me I am not entitled to it.
Surely that cant be right ?
That would mean then that every proprietary director and their spouses are not entitled to the tax credit regardless of their source of income??
I'd appreciate some advice on this - have just spent ages on the phone to revenue.
Thanks
