Need to enter contracting world...

[BolshieBastard]

May be I should have explained about myself in more detail orignally, I know the things that contractor have to cope with. I know that there is no sick pay, holiday pay etc etc.... with contractors.

I already have a limited company with company bank accounts running that I will be using for the payment. I opened a limited company back in 2008, but mostly inactive. Hence that all is not something new to me.

IR35 I understand may come into play but I see contractors not being effected by IR35, seems as if I put this question in a wrong way.

As a contractor I am not looking to only switch my relationship with employer but also open to new contracts

Words fail me, they really do!

I suspect the OP isn't British given the level of English used, perhaps doesn't understand the way we do things in this country.

He could still be British even if English isn't his first language

British may not neccessarily have good english

"lolz really this is something new to me, over the last 9 years i've been in the uk you are one of the rare ones picking on my english, normally when I talk to people they are amazaed by the accent I speak in and they dont seem to beleive, I am not from here, May be my spoken is far better than my written. Thinking of that what part of my quesiton convinced you that I am not british"

Althoug Northernladuk spotted very well I do qualify for british citizenship but not from here natively.

And beleive me I do have fair idea of how things are run in this country as I've also been immigration advisor .....

OISC registered?

[eek]

OISC registered?

Office of the Immigration Services Commissioner I would guess.

The thing is that companies will only pay what they have to to get the people they want. The first company you worked for brought you into this country because you were cheaper than a local person and that won't change.

What I was trying to get at is was the OP was registered to advise on immigration law - criteria are quite onerous, and if not on what basis were they giving advice? Hopefully not paid, that would be illegal.

Good English, but your use of 'natively' gives you away. Maybe Indian or a Romance language speaker? Overuse of adverbs can be a sign.

To be honest with you I am sure everyone that read your post would have assumed English wasn't your first language right from the off. Most of have had a lot of experience with off/on shore guys and there are more and more posting here so it isn't uncommon or hard to spot either...not saying that is where you are from but the style of writing is very different when it isn't your first language.

Does it really matter what this poster's first language is? Are we really that xenophobic here?
