I am leaving permanant employment on the 30th March but for my last few days will actually be on annual leave.
My current company has offered to buy some holidays off me so that I can spend a couple of days doing some handover work.
This is fine with me but I know the payroll has been run and if I take the payment as an employee this may be accounted for in the new tax year and I would rather keep that clean and only have tax going through from my company.
I was thinking that I could use a letter of engagement via my new company to do this 2 days worth of work, invoice the work and have my permanent employer pay my business.
The question is however that whilst there will be a quotation with a letter of engagement and terms, a purchase order for the work and an invoice from my company how do you think this may sit from an IR35 perspective as legally I am still employed by the company whilst I conducted the work?
Any ideas?
