I recently claimed on-line for everything I could fro the last few years. I have not claimed before but after the increasing taxes and wage cuts I claimed back any tax I could.
Interestingly in 2006 I had 2 different jobs, one for 3 months and the other for 9 months. I was able to claim Full flat rate expenses for both jobs for that year. It gave me the option to do so on-line.
It makes sense really - you may have to buy uniforms and tools for both jobs. If it only lasts 2 months you still have spent the money.
Are these allowances, or credits? ie A nurses flat rate exps for the yr is E733 (assuming she supplies & launders her own uniform). Is this full amount deducted from her tax liability, or just 20% or 41%?
In fairness, they (Revenue) do know and can advise accurately. I'm self employed and would not claim any flat rate expenses. I'm not a particular expert in these things but it's fairly clear to me that no flat rate expenses apply to the self-employed.
