    Regarding expenses

    Hi all,

    I have a small query. My next contract, I need to travel by train an hour and this will incur additional expense of £745 per month. Initially I thought I can show this an an expense, but most of the umbrella companies are not accepting this. Because of this, my take home will be very less. By any chance, can someone tell me a way to claim this?

    Thanks

    It’s very simple.

    There are no expenses allowed for inside IR35. You will have to pay them out of your salary.

    You will NOT be able to claim ANYTHING.

      Golden rule of contracting. Check out the travel time and costs before agreeing a rate.

                At renewal, negotiate a pay rise to cover the additional costs incurred.

                  Is this the same if the client pays them directly through their employee travel process, or would that become a benefit in kind?

                    If it’s traveling to and from the place of work, they can’t pay it. If it’s a journey to a different location, then they can pay some or all of it.
