My client who is self employed was called up for Jury Service for which he made a claim for Jury Service allowance through Abbey Legal protection. The claim was subsequently settled by them. I am currently completing my client's tax return and am not sure whether the claim monies paid are taxable income. Can anyone clarify this?
Just another query in respect of the Jury Service claim . As this is for loss of earnings and is taxable would it need to be included in the self employed income on the SA form and thus be included for class 4 NI contributions?
Also if this is the case would you include the income for the claim in the client's y/e accounts or keep seperate and just include in the total for self employed income on the SA form?
