This whole thread is a piece of tulip. It should go away.

At best it's a sockie ridden infestation and at worst it's either an attack on someone or a ruse designed to promote someone.

General is not the place to argue the toss over someone's advice. The place to do it is in the thread where the suspect advice was given.

Thread locked!

And which of those - apart from the first which I didn't say anyway and the second, which has changed recently anyway - is factually incorrect?

Of those listed, I recall you saying the latter several times (about ELI as a requirement for a valid RoS). This is extremely questionable, as ELI can be arranged immediately. However, your advice is generally very good IMHO.

I'd also like to hear from Eek. I saw some dust and his yellow streak hot foot it out of here the minute someone stood up to him.

Regular client office makes it a 'permanent' place of work therefore any travel/subsistence/accommodation claims are taxable income.

Mileage from home to temporary workplace is only claimable in part - must deduct the mileage that would have normally done to permanent workplace.

Meal expenses - Can't claim subsistence, since you have to eat anyway. Can claim only if you are working long days.

Training costs are BiK unless associated with an actual fee-earning contract.

Expenses do not need to be reported on P11D if paid by company (debit card, etc.).

Not having ELI invalidates your RoS clause and makes it a sham.

Do you have any examples of his advice, of which the veracity you find questionable?

Looks at the advice he offers. Hmm you may well have to reconsider that. Granted he does offer advice, I'm not exactly sure how accurate it is.

No. Just the CUK annual awards thread which said I'm not cut out to be a contractor.

FTFY

[northernladuk]

And did it turn up anything?

No. Just the CUK annual awards thread which said we were still waiting.

Where was this announced? Is it official? Link?

Edit : forget that. I did a search

Yeh. No. Dunno. Weird. That's good.

Well don't go just yet. We'd miss you, even if you are a cantankerous old git.
