Hi everyone. My work enrolled me on a course for which I had to sign a form agreeing to pay back the course fees if I left within a certain amount of time. I signed (didn't keep a copy) and agreed as I had no intention of leaving anytime soon and felt in the event that I did, it would be an investment in myself anyway. Recently finished the course and happened to have found a new job, knew I would be liable for full course fees. On top of this, I've also been charged for the days studying and attending tuition. Receiving the invoice I was confused to see VAT which was not mentioned in the total or at any point. Where do I stand on the VAT? I know they can claim back for employee training so I don't feel I should be charged for something not lost to them but the course went into this financial year, if they don't claim back VAT until next April, can they still claim it back as I was an employee during this financial year or do I have to be an employee at the time of claiming it? Does anyone know?
