I'm currently in negotiations with my client regarding a contract renewal. I've contracted for them before and now they want to push us Inside IR35, obviously, the entire team is resisting heavily. I went through a determination with them today and I thought I had them on expenses as we have to front-run any travel expenses out of our own pocket and claim it back later. This was debunked as these do not count as they are reimbursable.
We are trying to find a way to maintain our outside IR35 status, we are thinking of asking them to change the contract so that we cannot be reimbursed for any expenses we incur and we take on all expenses out of our own Ltd Companies. This is still a hit to the pocket but, it's a lot better than being inside. Is there any reason why doing this would still not count as being outside IR35 that anyone knows of?
