Employer CD-Rom, Tax Credits and the new Fuel Rates

Employer CD ROM

All users need to download and install the November update even though you might have previously updated it.

Tax credits

Claimants who are self employed should give the Tax Credit Office their profit figure for 2009/10 by 31 January 2011 otherwise they may receive too much benefit and have to find the repayments.

New Fuel Rates

From 1 December 2010 the following fuel rates apply;

Engine Size	Petrol	Diesel	LPG
1,400 cc or   less	13p	12p	9p
1,400 cc - 2,000 cc	15p	12p	10p
Over 2,000 cc	21p	15p	15p

VAT can be reclaimed by employers from within the above figures but they need to keep the fuel receipts. Petrol hybrid cars are classed as petrol cars.
