A client from last year - who are in the public sector - have written to me asking me to fill in a form assuring them that I have taken steps to ensure I pay the correct tax. The wording though troubles me. It asks me to declare myself as either employed through an employment business, a PSC, or otherwise self-employed. I'm not sure any of those apply. Anyone else had this happen? What did you do?

Part of showing you're a proper business and not some disguised permie is acting like one.
You could ignore it (you probably have no obligation to complete their form) but IMO the business like response would be so send a letter similar to the one missinggreenfields posted. Polite, brief and to the point.Comment
