Hi. Thanks for your input. We're setting up our company policies from scratch and my question is relating to exactly what are the precise Revenue guidelines. It is probably a pedantic point I'm raising. But I want to be sure of the exact guidelines so I can forecast any differences between Revenue Guidelines and our guidelines/policies. So no nasty surprises in the event of a Revenue audit.
My Worker-Bee scenario was to highlight how you can't mix per-diems with invoice/receipt/claims. This issue arises in the context of hotel being paid for by my employer but I'm on a daily rate; does this simple case fall outside the Revenue guidelines?
Thanks Jon. Its not an urgent task, and I only think of it outside usual working-hours. But your answer caused me to remember I have a friend in the Revenue and I've arranged to meet him next week.
In the scheme of things I'll be looking for from the Revenue, this won't be high on the list. In the end if needs be, I'll have a tighter policy or a looser policy but draw management's attention to risks.
In the public service, which is based on revenue approved rates, there is a "day" per diem, so if the hotel was paid the employee would still get this for lunches and so forth.
There isn't anything that covers this particular scenario, where the employer pays for the overnight accommodation directly.Plenty of detail on the Revenue website about this including all the rules and conditions.
