what is IR35

[Wilmslow]

Good morning my fellow contractors

I have been an IT contractor for a few years now.
Just before Brexit was meant to happen, I found the market
I eventually managed to land a 6 months contract but it was inside IR35. My take home pay has taken a huge hit. Now, the burning question is come April, are all private sector contracts DEFINITELY going to be inside IR35 ?

I have done some calculations and it seems that my take home pay will be better if I still continue contracting and I am inside IR35 rather than taking a Perm role.

How are you guys preparing ?

I'll be licking the chutney spoon. Plenty quickness, much cheapness....
