What percentage of your takings are cash?

Do you declare 100% of your cash taking to HMRC?

Or do you declare 3 and keep one?

[ok cleaning]

Who on here is going to admit to being dishonest with their tax returns.

Me personally am the most honest person I know and declare 100% of my takings, even adding a bit to help with the tax man's Christmas party  !!

[seandyer2003]

hahaha everyone on here is far too worried about talking about tax, earnings etc, which leads me to believe they are all keeping a bit under the matress If you take alot of cash its far too easy !! But the only thing i would say is make sure you keep the tax man happy or you will have them looking closer and then its not so funny!

[trike]

yes every penny,keep all reciepts even if it for fairy liquid,my wife is an accountant,very handy to have

TAX MAN ALERT!!!!!

[gerard mcmanus]

best not take put anything straight in your pocket so to speak, as you will have higher petrol usage etc than espected by your declared sales and could highlight that you are cooking the books. Also if you make any record off it and dont declare it you could get caught.

You lie once you might get away with it, but too many lies and your forget what the truth is, and thats when you'll be sniffed out.

Declare it all, seriously.

Easier to delare it all and sleep well knowing that I 'should' not have any issues with the taxman...

Plus I am a forienger in another country and it is only right that I pay my full dues.

a shame no one else feels like that here then 

[Dean Aspects]

If i ever do something wrong i always get caught so i declare everything even to the wife who is way scarier than the tax man

[jaykie]

If you new someone who was earning 3.5k a month and declaring nothing who do you report them too. Plus is there anything else they can get done for as they dont have insurance, employees insurance and they dont pay tax either.

To be honest, I'm not that honest, but I don't truly know a window cleaner who is!

I know a few who say they're 'tax ligititimate', but after having knowing them for a few years; I know this isn't the whole truth.

Do you really declare everything?  Tips?  What do you do if you're given an expensive bottle of whisky as a tip (which has happened to me).  Do you work out the value of it and declare that?

And what about using a work vehicle for private purposes, yet not taking that into account when working out your expenses.

I also work my turnover out as the amount I've cleaned that day; not the amount of money I've received (I find that easier).  But I know many, if not most window cleaners work their turnover as the amount of money they've actually received that day; and if they've bought lunch from their turnover, well that get missed from the total.

Is anyone here really 'whiter-that-white'?

I honestly doubt it, though I bet some claim that they are.

[s.w.c]

yea ok but i only earn 3bob an 4 shillings

[trike]

please dont tar everyone with the same brush,if you are not honest then so be it,dont make yourself feel better saying everyone is the same,because there not.drink the whiskey thats a prezie.
