what is the best way to do a freelancing job over the summer for a student
user
if this will be your sole income for the year, going self-employed is the best way to do this: so, here's how to go at it: total cash in: £2000 total tax paid: £0 admin overhead: approx 3 hours. legit: 100%   :) edit:  can you tell me that in my case what are the required fields on the invoice? if you're non-vat registered, there are no legal requirements as to what information you need to put on the invoice -it literally can be a couple of numbers on a napkin, and still be legit.  with that said, to make a professional appearance, my invoices are usually structured as follows: left side: ( sidenote: why client-specific incremental numbering? why, so they can't make educated guesses to the number of clients i have at any given time :)  ) right side: center table: and so far, none of my clients missed any fields, so this should have everything they need to :) hope this helps, but keep in mind, all of the above is synthetic sugar on the top -ultimately,  the relationship you share with your clients is the thing you will (or will not) get paid for! edit#2: the voices in my head just pointed out, that i've totally omitted national insurance contributions in the above. however, and i quote hmrc: if your profits are expected to be less than £5,315 you may not have to pay class 2 national insurance contributions. hence, this won't change the numbers above, either -just make sure to point this out during your registration in the office.
