when your mindees mums/dads pay you, how do you pay yourselves??? do you take a % of what you charge or do you take that as your wages and generally deduct you tax and expenses from that as and when???


somehow im managing to confuse myself!! (its not hard trust me :panic: )

one pays me cash the other goes into the bank. The cash gets spent more or less straight away - I live in hope of the stuff in the bank will remain there for a will but its rare.

I don't take a wage - It is all MINE!!!:laughing:

It is only the paperwork that needs to show the money - how you pay expenses is up to you.

Im trying to work out what tax I will be paying for last year (I started late aug - to this April) I know its not due till jan 10 but while we are paying for the wedding there will be an overlap for paying for the 7 seater s max. so I am trying to see if we can use that to pay for those couple of months it overlaps (the old car will not survive the mot in august and would cost prob more then its worth to repair hence we are using the scrappage tax offer.

I doubt if you will pay anything at all as you won't of earned enough.

Why not complete the online tax return and it will tell you how much is owed and it still won't be due until Jan 10
