I appreciate this has been asked a million times - and I’ve found “conflicting” evidence on the web - and my accountant keeps giving me different information – so I thought I’d try and get a definitive answer here...
I am renting a flat close to my new contract (paid by my company). My family still live at home. I travel from home/to work Monday morning and return Friday evening.
Can I put the following costs through my company...
(a) Full weeks rental (this seems to a “yes” as it’s impossible to rent Mon to Fri – just thought I’d double check though).
(b) Utility bills (electric, gas, water).
(c) Council tax (single occupancy).
(d) Mileage to work from home (vice-versa Mon and Fri).
(e) Mileage to work from rental (during week).
(f) £5 a day living away from home allowance
(g) Anything else.
Again, apologies for asking what seem to be obvious questions but being told “yes” then “no” then “maybe” is getting confusing. Someone else must have done this.
Many thanks.
