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!

Welcome

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

But if you go Limited don't you need an accountant
