  1. different allowances

    different companies

    different countries

    uk / usa/ eu???


  2. The tax free (yes, they want to tax you again) amount is 40p per mile - unfortunately the real rate it is costing you is 50p per mile at least and most cars are more.  This has not been adjusted for inflation and daylight robbery since it came in in 2002.  

    Basically they want you to pay for the privilege of working in this country.  

  3. You'll have to consult your employment contract.

    Mileage accrued while on deliveries is a direct & necessary expense you incure in the performance of you role (as opposed to mileage to&from work), it's highly unlikely you'll not get this reimbursed. Rates vary anywhere between 20p & 50p/mile depending on area & required vehicle.

    Make sure your expenses are below the line on your pay slip. The revenue appreciate the concept of double taxation so expenses should (legally) be reimbursed in full. Whoever mentioned otherwise has an employer who's pocketing the difference...    

  4. Whatever you negotiate with your employer.  There is no law.  

  5. We live in the UK, my hubby delivers pizzas for Dominos as an extra job on the weekends and he gets £1 per delivery.  He doesn't have to travel too far, each delivery isn't normally more than 3-4 miles from the store at absolute maximum.  However he does find sometimes that he spends more on petrol than he gets back in mileage allowance.

  6. Ask your union.

  7. The price of fuel, the type of driving and the wear and tear on the vehicle a delivery person performs all contribute to a significant expense for the employee. There is no general rule of thumb for these expenses that I know of, but if you log your mileage and expenses, it will give you a little more leverage if you decide to request a greater mileage allowance.

  8. The tax deduction for mileage this year is $.585 on the mile.  There is no law about them having to pay you, you deduct it as a business expense.

  9. 34p
