Fuel expenses

As a self employed cleaner, I use my car for journeys to and from my cleaning jobs. I have a couple of contracts which means I visit the same places of work every week. My question is in regard to expenses. Do I need to put down fuel costs on my self assessment as an expense? Also, I am confused as to whether recording expenses are optional if under the tax threshold. Without fuel expenses I would then qualify for Class 2 NICs free of charge.

Hi Kat21,

please refer to guidance  at Expenses if you're self-employed

Thank you.
