Letter from HMRC

[psychocandy]

Hello all,

I have just received a letter asking me to supply the P45 part 1 form for Mrs Lynn Murray.
I have never heard of her and she has certainly never worked for me.

Has anyone received this kind of thing before? I am cautious in case it is an obtuse IR35 starting point.

Yep. I had some random persons P45 sent to me once.

Seems a bit obscure what you're suggesting though. Send a random P45 then start an IR35 investigation? Am I missing something?

i just assumed it was just some useless git at HMRC putting it in wrong envelope....

Only my naive paranoia

You should tell them to look at your website. Then post on there they have to call a number. Ensure that number routes to a call-waiting system with at least 30mins of hold music interrupted only by announcements to say that they should look on your website...
