Actors tax and nic

Actor client is late as usual with return. He has always been treated as self employed and I have adjusted for class 4 nic through tax return. (employed nic self employed tax)

This year however he has produced a paye income statement from HMRC for part of his earnings.

Am I correct in assuming that I enter this as earnings from employment rather than self employment ?

I would prefer to treat it as self employed because of the greater flexibility in claiming expenses.

many thanks for response and advice.
