Business mileage (commuting) in permanent role

[texasjohn]

I think I know what the answer will be but I thought I'd run it past the resident experts...

Start a full time permanent role with a single work location - you can't claim commuting mileage or offset against tax.

However if you are made redundant after a few months can it thereafter be considered as a temporary place of work as the contract of employment lasted less than 24 months?

No in a word. It was your permanent workplace regardless of how little time you spent travelling there.

As LC23 says - not a chance.

As all the experts say - no way.
