Can I deduct the salary I pay my spouse?

If your spouse is an employee (not a partner) in your business you can deduct their salary. You will need to operate Pay as You Earn and account for the tax and National Insurance Contributions. The Inland Revenue may ask you for evidence that you pay the wages to your spouse and that the amount is reasonable for the work they do.
