If i register as self employed can i work in more than one field? -

On the online registration form it asks, What kind of work do you Well say i did network engineering and also graphic design can i put both, note that these are obviously totally different fields, but i would like to work in both, or do i need to submit 2 different online forms??Also it asks for a business name, can i just pick a name(after doing a search to make sure it s not in use), also if i set up a website does it have to be the same name as the business name i pick on the registration form, or could i have any website name and just use the business name i signed up with as my link to the tax return so to speak..

You can work in as many fields as you like. Each field will need a separate self-employed page in your annual Tax Return, but you only need to submit one Return.As far as HMRC is concerned, you can use what business name you like. You don t have to use same business name on website, although you would probably find this more convenient. If you don t notify any other business name, HMRC will assume you are using your own name, you don t have to trade under any other name.

1. you can trade under your name i.e. business name = Mr Joe Bloggs2. you can put the kind of work as network engineering and graphic design then you only need to fill one section on your return
