Another tax return question

[GoodBytes]

Except it isn't possible if you're not PAYE registered.

I have to record the directorship in the drop down list that asks how many employments, and directorships have you had. It then adds an employment page for each item including the directorship. Are you saying I was given incorrect information?

1 Employment

You should fill in the ‘Employment’ page if you:

• were employed in full-time, part-time or casual employment
• received income as a company director
• held an office, such as chairperson, secretary or treasurer and received income for that work
• worked for 1 person through another company or partnership, for example, agency work
• were resident in the UK and received an income from any foreign employment

You will need a separate ‘Employment’ page for each job, directorship or office.

If you were a company director and didn’t receive any income or benefits, but expect to do so in future, just complete boxes 4, 5 and 6 of the Employment page. This will mean you don’t have to re-register for Self Assessment.

You are at risk of over-analysing this though. The reason you have been asked to complete an employment page is because of the system, not the rules.

Yes, the rules I read say one thing, the online tax return software assumes something different.
