how much did you get?

according to this table you can claim £100/yr (forestry)

EIM32712 - Other expenses: flat rate expenses: table of agreed amounts for 2004/05 onwards

 

not sure if that's just washing clothes or all expenses...

 

 

 

this is the letter you should send.....

 

EIM32712 - Other expenses: flat rate expenses: table of agreed amounts for 2004/05 onwards it is not limited to those listed but that is a guide and customs will choose the most suitable catogory based on your job

 

 

Wash your uniform at home ?

 

Then write to your tax office and tell them, i got a extra tax allowance and it is backdated 6 years which its better than nothing and better in your pocket

 

It only costs the price of a stamp so worth a try !

 

All you need to do is fill in the blanks and send it to your work's tax office.(thanks to max2002ad)

Dear Inland Revenue

 

RE: Expenses Allowance

 

I have been employed at Company Name, Location since (Date of Starting at Employment). I am obliged to launder the uniform, which is supplied to me by the company. I therefore wish to claim an expenses allowance of £xx for each year since the above date.

 

 

Yours Faithfully

One cheque for 96 one for ten and another for nine it is done on a sliding scale as each year was a different amount only received the last three years still waiting on the rest

thats a thought, if all arboricultural workers are considered under forestry for taxation, should our industry body not get an equal share of the monies handed out by the government to reflect the taxation income generated by BOTH sectors and dividing the monies more fairly!

 

awesome
