I recently moved to the UK and I would like to stay here at least for a few years (maybe longer...?). I registered myself as a self-employed entertainer because I want to be in the system if I am going to live here. Speaking to other girls that I work with it doesnt really seem like anyone else does this so I dont have anyone to ask for advice! Any of you UK-dancers who pay taxes? I have a few questions if you dont mind!
Do you do everything alone or do you pay someone to keep track of everything? I had a company in Spain before and the accountant I had there did everything wrong and was so expensive! I dont trust them but I am nervous that I will not do things right and that I will have to pay so much in the end of the tax-year! I really dont like that you just pay once a year...I would really prefer to pay my taxes every 3 months, is that possible?
How do you proof that the money comes from dancing...? Do you write a reciept to the club when you receive your money at the end of the night? (Thats how it works where I dance.) I just think that if I dont have any proof from where the money comes I could just as well be selling drugs saying I am an entertainer...?!
What sort of receipts do you keep? I think I will start to keep all receipt in connection to my work, like makeup, travel with taxi, outfits, shoes etc.
I have so many questions but this will do for now! I would really appreciate any help!
