I am afraid I am not sure at all Hmmm...

Tax really is not my thing. Does sound better however from what I know though.

How comes your so interested? Do a lot of claiming etc?

Well my step dad is self employed and he makes use of an accountant (albeit my mother) and ends up with a brand new van every year out of his "rebate". So it might be worth the accountant to be honest.

Yep - you have got until 31st Jan 2010 - that's the final deadline.

But if you want to pay more accurate payments on account (I pay tax twice a year) then the sooner you get your return done the better.


I appreciate the Tax Office will have answers to everything but thought if I would see if others here have any experience.

Also the tax office only give you 'some' of the answers - in my experience they don't give actual tax advice just answers to direct questions which isn't always the same when it comes to tax! ;¬)

Pfff getting her to understand what a forums is would be the first step.

Anywho when you find your answer Hmmm... let us know. I'll talk to her tonight and see what she says by the way. SHe probably knows.

It would make sense to have the full expense allocated against the income for the period in which both were incurred - and then if there was a loss (though I hope that's not the case), you'd have the option to carry it forward.
