    Is it me, for is the idea of someone setting up an umbrella asking for advice on basic accounting practices just a little suspicious? Would you entrust your income to someone who doesn't know their own business? the OP is most odd...

    Most umbrella companies will have a PDF expenses guide on their website that you could check, or post a thread on the Umbrella Company section under Accounting and Legal.

    Or go Limited

    Welcome Hagar!

    You'll find a lot of answers to your questions within the CUK website.

    On the right you'll find CUK Navigation. >>>>>>>>>

    Look down and you'll come to the First Timers section. Have a read through there.

    Basic expenses questions answered here: Contractor Expenses - How to claim Travel and other expenses via Limited Company or Umbrella

    Then pay particular attention to IR35.

    If you go into the Accounting/Legal forum you'll discover the thread Basic advice when running your own contractor business.

    Guide to Contracts also has some good articles.

    Happy reading!

    started a topic Newbie!

    Newbie!

    Wotcha all. I'm Hagar and new on here so hullo all.

    I have been a contractor for a few years now and recently started with an agency who are in the process of setting up their own umbrella scheme. Can someone send me a link as to what expenses can be claimed so I can forward it on to the agency to help them and consequently us. I've tried explaining as to what can be claimed but the agency tells me different so any help and advice would be appreciated!


    Hagar
