Hi there,
In 2013 I moved to Canada and worked there for about three and a half years. I then came back to the UK and worked here for eight months. Then I returned to Canada for three months and now I am back working in the UK again. In each instance I have employed an accountant to sort out my tax returns up to this point.
Because I can travel to Canada and work (I am a permanent resident card holder of Canada), is it possible to be able to reclaim the cost of flights etc as a business expense or other type of expense? At the moment I am self employed in the UK and in Canada depending on the project, I could either be freelance or taxed at source (similar to PAYE here.)
I suppose what I am saying is that an organisation or other business, if it needed to conduct business in another country, can claim back the cost of flights and other expenses etc. I'm wondering if there's something similar I could do? Would I need to set myself up as a limited company? Therefore would all the work I did in Canada need to be something I invoiced for?
Thanks in advance.
