Hello. If I understand correctly if my "Total income on which tax is due" is £5,000 my Tax Band is Basic. Therefore I have a Personal Savings Allowance of £1,000. If this is correct, should the amount I need to fill under "Untaxed UK interest etc" be before or after deducting the Personal Savings Allowance? Thanks, 

Hello. Are self-assessment payments deductible from next year's business income? Thanks, Asaf

Thank you

Hi, I'm sometimes being reimbursed for project-related expenses by my clients. That is, I'm paying for something and then getting the amount back from my client. What would be the best way of recording these transactions? Also, can I claim these reimbursed expenses for tax relief? If I do not claim these reimbursed expenses for tax relief, and *do* record the reimbursement from my client as an income - I will pay more tax than I should I believe. Also, do I need to invoice my client for these expenses? I hope my question is clear enough. I will be happy to make it clearer if it isn't. Thanks, 

Hello, I didn't mention the simplified expenses in my original query. You brought it up. I used the word "flat", maybe it got you confused. But it was a synonym for "apartment" ("studio flat") and not part of "flat rate"... Again, my original query: Assuming I'm self-employed (sole trader), I work from home 6 hours a day, and my home is a studio apartment (1 room). What proportion of the *rent* is reasonable to claim for Home Allowance? Looking forward to your answer. Thanks, Asaf

Thanks. But I don't think I understand. I believe that as a self-employed working from home I can claim part of the rent, as the proportion of the flat that being used for work. It is for example says so here: https://www.gov.uk/expenses-if-youre-self-employed Quoted: If you work from home You may be able to claim a proportion of your costs for things like: heating electricity Council Tax mortgage interest or *rent* internet and telephone use You’ll need to find a reasonable method of dividing your costs, for example by the number of rooms you use for business or the amount of time you spend working from home. Am Im missing something? Please let me know. Thanks, Asaf

Thank you. But, as I understand, the simplified expenses don't include rent. Am I wrong?

Thanks . I'm a self employed web developer. I'm sorry I forgot to mention it. In this case, if part of the accommodation I rented used for working, shouldn't I be able to claim this part as a business expense? Thanks.

Hello, What about my original query? Attached again: *** I believe a nomadic life doesn't fit the definition of "permanence and stability". Maybe we can look at this in another way: If, during my travels, I were to rent working spaces, I believe I could have claimed it as a business expense? If so, I can claim that part of the accommodations I rented was used as a working space (as it was). So I basically rented accommodation and working space together and am asking for relief for the working space part of my expenses. Regarding your question, before these 3 months, I left my apartment in the UK, ended the lease, and stopped paying rent. By chance, the apartment was available when I got back, and I re-entered it under a new lease. Does it impact the case? *** Thanks, Asaf
