Government Departments Screw up IR35

DWP faced with £87.9m tax bill for incorrect IR35 status determinations (peoplemanagement.co.uk)

or has that already been posted?


“This is a clear example of the risk involved in using online tools such as CEST to determine IR35 status. Relying on CEST alone does not demonstrate reasonable care or protect against HMRC fines.”

I didn't post the DWP story as I thought someone else already had.

The Home Office is a f***ing joke in every respect.
