All you really need to do is put the totals on your earnings page. The one that says earnings below £15,000 (assuming you earned less than that!!)

Put in your earnings before expenses in one box and the earnings after in another, sorry I can't remember the numbers of the boxes.

Hope that helps.

its expenses allowable for tax is it? I take i add my 10% for wear and tear with my other expenses? sorry i sound so dumb. like i said ive done my other job today. to top it off ive got the start of a cold!

That's right, put all the expenses you've added up, like you say there is the 10% wear and tear then there is also allowance for gas and electric, food, toys and equipment etc. etc.

Just get one big total for them all and enter them in 3.25A
