Not quite as doomed as some were expecting, unless you really are pretending to be outside IR35 and winging it right now.
On a positive note, personal allowance and higher rate threshold increase from April to £12.5k and £50k respectively. By my calculations based on this years optimal salary/dividend combo (£8.4k salary), this brings total take home from dividends up to the higher rate threshold of £47,338 although the actual optimal salary/dividend combo might be slightly different. This would require a post-tax profit of £51,358.
