    Advantages over Umbrella if failing IR35

    Cant find this info in any of the posts.....

    If your contract is caught by IR35, whether by contract or working practices, does anyone know the benefits of still operating a Ltd company over going the umbrella route. I believe you cannot claim travel to and from work now under an umbrella, however with a Ltd company, you can claim this, aswell as 5% expenses and flat rate VAT. Presuming the Ltd co. and umbrella running costs are the same (between 60-100 month) it looks like I would still be financially better off using a Ltd co.

    Is this right?

    thanks
