HMRC - Mileage claim
Permalink Closed

Hi

A client has come to me regarding claiming back mileage allowance from HMRC, he is employed.

His employer pays him 40p per mile and obviously the HMRC approved rate is 45p.

Some years ago in my days of being employed I used to use a form which allowed for this difference to be reclaimed as a repayment from HMRC but all I can find now is the form P87 http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/forms/p87.pdf which if I am correct allows the difference to be paid back through the employees tax code.

Can anyone point me in the direction of the form that I used to use or does it all have to be done now through the PAYE code.

Thanks for your help

Mark

If he is self employed it can be claimed through self assessment , if employed the P87 is used as like you say it puts it to their tax code

It doesn't say on the P87 it is repaid through an amended tax code.

It has this comment "If relief is due you will receive a repayment of the tax paid on the net allowable expenses."

I put a claim in each year for my daughter for her mileage and they amend her tax code
