Hi all,
I'm new here and very much appreciate any help you might be able to offer on this. Hopefully this is the correct part of the forum to post in.
I work in the UK and have been posted on a secondment to the US for a year. During this time I was paid my usual UK salary and taxes, I was never paid in the US. During my visit I paid all the costs myself. On my return I claimed back through an internal process the cost of accommodation, food, car hire, etc. which came from a specific external grant to cover travel costs.
My query is whether I should pay any sort of tax on this refunded money? I don't know whether for tax purposes it would be considered company paid housing, for example. Or if this is treated the same as if I was just paid extra money each month so I should pay more income, NI and student loans. Everything I've read up on so far seems to be targeted towards benefits you'd get that are outlined in your contract.
Internal finance doesn't seem to have a clue so was hoping someone here might have some idea!
Thanks in advanced
