Did you know that many police officers don’t claim all they are entitled to in their tax return? Martin & White Accountants have been involved in the preparation of taxation returns for people in the police force for years and have discovered many of you are missing out.

Here is just a small sample of items you might be able to claim for:

• The cost of using your car for travel to attend meetings or training courses that are not at your normal place of employment
• The cost of buying meals when you work overtime, as long as you have been paid an allowance by your employer
• Dry-cleaning and laundry of uniform
• A portion of your home internet costs related to work use
• The cost of payment made to informants (provided you were not reimbursed)
• A portion of your mobile phone if you use it to make calls for work purposes
• Sun protection costs i.e. sunglasses, hats and sunscreen lotion, if you are required to work outdoors for all or part of the day
• and more!
