Expenses

As an employee of Sprite's umbrella company you will be able to submit certain types of expenses claims in accordance with the rules that are issued by HMRC. In summary, all expenses claimed must have been incurred "wholly, exclusively and necessarily in the performance of your duties of your employment."

By sticking to the HMRC rule and working on the principal you can't claim for an expense which you have not incurred you should find the operation of our expenses policy very simple and one which will ultimately be of benefit to you.

Our expenses claim form and our expenses policy can be downloaded in the document section by clicking here.

Please note that expenses are not paid as an additional sum on top of your pay rate. If you claim allowable expenses these will be offset against your taxable pay so that the amount of income you pay tax and National Insurance Contributions on is reduced. this means that you effectively obtain tax and national insurance relief on your expenses when they are incurred as opposed to having to wait until the end of the tax year to claim them back through your self-assessment. If the expenses you claim cover several weeks they may not be processed in the same week and may be carried forward until all the expenses have been allocated.
