Hi
I am a first time contractor and have not been able to find enough information regarding renting accomodatin and claiming back as expenses.
All I have found so far is that unless you only rent for 5 days a week, you cant claim rental costs. Is this true, and how on earth do you find someone to rent porperty to you on a 5-day basis?
Can you just claim 5/7ths of the total rent?
What about other bills such as elec, gas, water, sky, cable, internet..?
My contract is a long way from home, so its neccessary to rent another porperty to live in during the week, and its cheaper than staying in a hotel...
Any help appreciated.
