Re: Self Employment
Taxation (and NI, INPS etc are all forms of taxation, even if they're not called that) is not as a rule ringfenced, so people without children pay for education, people without cars pay towards the road system, ad infinitum.

Re: Self Employment
Ciao Carol, and Happy New Year.If I were in your position, I would keep the can of worms you're sitting on firmly closed. Just care for the dogs that you take in; as a favour to people you know via web or social networks; and then accept VOLUNTARY contributions from them for the food etc. as you have said. If you have fully paid up UK contributions, nothing to be gained by paying INPS or earning an official 5/6 K eurines per year for the taxman.
cheers,
'o nonno

Never ever leave a paper trail if it can be avoided.

Re: Self Employment
Its a can of worms. Depending if you have dependents and so on you can earn around 6000 tax free, except that it isnt tax free, because you still have to pay someone to do your accounts and submit them. I would think (no proof) that you wont need a partita IVA for petsitting, and if that is the case you wont have to pay the minimum INPS, but do it as prestazione occasionale with your codice fiscale. But it needs to be occasional - 3 or 4 a year at most. If you bought a car, and have a Carta didentia then you have residency, and must fill in tax returns by law, even if you have no income. From 1 Jan 2014, any money held overseas must be declared on the RW section of your form - its going to get very silly.....

Re: Self Employment
technically paypal accounts should have been declared last year as well - the italian govt has decided that you should pay tax on them. The difference this year is that the previous lower limit of 10.000 has been abolished. So yes, your 3 British Gas shares, 25 quid premium bonds are now fair game. I think Maunday money may be exempt!
