Originally posted by Deadlyspark1 View PostHi guys, Looking for some advise!
I have been contracting for 8 months at a rate of £425. I have been offered a position within the company on £60,000 a year plus Van. If I stay contracting there’s enough work for 18 months, whereas the permanent position there is currently 3/4 years work currently.
With the current climate and now official in a recession, what are your thoughts?
Thanks in advance!!!
Hi guys should have added. I’m LTD and in the back of my mind IR35 is concerning me, but passed my IR35 assessment which deemed me “outside” for 12 months.Comment

So further to that there is a question about whether or not the new job is doing the same as you were doing as a contract which has IR35 issues and then there is the CIS comment made earlier.
As ususal we have nowhere near enough information to give any kind of advice and the missing facts will just get drip fed until the whole things becomes far to confusing to help.
IMO get us some hard facts and some information and re-start the thread. This one is now useless.'CUK forum personality of 2011 - Winner - Yes really!!!!Comment

Originally posted by northernladuk View PostThis sets the alarm bells ringing for me. It tells me you've a very poor grasp of IR35 and I'm wondering what kind of assessment puts you out for a set period of time as you say you've been there 8 months. You don't appear to understand that this can change over time and you can affect your own status..

When in contract I bill every day I can. I haven't had any of these 5 year contracts though. Most has been 2 years and I didn't take any holidays during that time. I'd rather bill 250 days a year and take 2 months off after it's over.Comment
