    The best thing to do is talk to your accountant and explain your exact circumstances e.g. where you live normally.

    Make sure the flat you are claiming for is:
    1. Fully furnished as you cannot claim any furnishings.
    2. Is big enough only for you to stay there otherwise you cannot claim if others stay with you.

    Renting a place usually means signing a six month minimum lease, you do know that? Don't rely on a six-month or six-month plus contract lasting that long.

    started a topic Accommodation Expenses

    Accommodation Expenses

    Hello,

    Apologies if this has been asked before! Just in the process of going from perm-contractor and sorting out an accountant. As I will be relocating for the contraction, i understand I can pay for accommodation out of expenses as long as I currently pay rent/have a mortgage, however, can I only claim for Mon-Fri? So, if renting a flat ends up cheaper, will I have to contribute the weekend cost?

    Many thanks in advance.

Working...
