Hi, I’m new to contracting and going through a steep learning curve. Part of that learning curve, as you would expect, is IR35. I think I understand the basics and have been having ongoing discussions with the agency that placed me regarding my status. Below is part of an ongoing conversation about how someone concluded what my IR35 status is.
I’d be interested in hearing your thoughts on the below statement from my agency as it goes against what I believe is true. The reference to a Ltd Company is (I believe) advise from a Ltd Company contractor back to the agency on this subject. Company X is who I am working for.
“The fact that COMPANY X are a private company means that it is outside of IR35. If you were working for a public sector company then they would tell you if you were inside or outside. As the Ltd Company confirmed, any private sector contractors need not worry about this until April 2020.”
I just want to validate that I am correct in my understanding. Thanks in advance.
