Im on a short term project for work at the moment and im travelleing a lot of miles to which i can claim 35p a mile allowance, this is tax free and excluded from my P60 . Do i need to declare this ?

You could tell your IP to keep yourself covered but as it is an expense it wOuld not need to be paid into the IVA.

Thanks once again .. Most useful feedback

This is paid to you to cover not just petrol but also the wear and tear your vehicle will suffer as a result of using it for work purposes. As Michael says, let your IP know, but it will not form part of your disposable income calculation.

Thankyou.. I was a bit concerned and now im not. It was the fact that the payment will show on my wageslips, just when my review is coming up

Which is why it is best to pre-warn them to avoid any confusion at the time of the review.

I receive 40p a mile for all additional mileage travelled other than to my "home" office - this is paid separately into my account as and when it is incurred and I have not had to declare it to my IVA company as it simply covers additional mileage, wear and tear and parking costs that I have had to already payout for....just let your IP know
