United Nations IPSA Contract
Don't get it - they both mention a value being applied if OVER a specific figure - but the figure is the same bar £1. So if my profits are less that £11,908 a year - I pay nothing? If my profits are £30k - do I pay £3.15 a week, or 9.73% of £19,092 ( £0 - 11908 ) or both?- Bluebird

Do i assume that on that link that HMRC have got a word wrong: You usually pay 2 types of National Insurance if you’re self-employed: Class 2 if your profits are more than £11,908 a year Class 4 if your profits are £11,909 or more a year Should class 2 be LESS than 11908?- Bluebird

United Nations IPSA Contract
Ok, so speaking to someone who is already on one of these. Their opinion is that you get paid a wodge of cash in dollars based on a monthly rate, you then take care of tax your end. This to me seems strange - I can see how I can account for income tax as part of self assessment perhaps, but...- Bluebird

United Nations IPSA Contract
Yes I did and yes I do. It sounds like it could be treated as a permie / fixed term contract type role - but you have to provide your own insurance, payment is made in $ based on a rate and it looks like you get paid monthly but with some holiday allowance ( which again looks like permie )...- Bluebird

Corp Tax for Dissolved Company
Yes, I did read that - and all the advice that came from Companies House about dissolving a company. It just seems odd that they would let anyone do this - I'd actually prefer to pay the amount as I have the money - I just don't know how to do that, and HMRC don't seem to want to facilitate it...- Bluebird

Corp Tax for Dissolved Company
When the company was dissolved Companies House and my Bank both said that the Bank Account would be frozen so I should move any remaining funds out. How can it be tax evasion when I've said "I owe you money - how do I report and pay it?" and they have said "You don't owe anything"?- Bluebird

Corp Tax for Dissolved Company
Ok, so after many years of O/S IR35 I've taken an Inside gig and decided to dissolve the Ltd Co I've been using. I tried to file a final CT return but the site wouldn't let me do it as it wasn't due, so I thought I'd dissolve the company and then file the final return on the anniversary when it...- Bluebird

So the situation is that I'm with Client 1 and using Umbrella 1, that contract is coming to an end and Client 2 ( via an agency ) wants be to work via Umbrellas ( of which Umbrella 1 is not on the list ). Apart from the fact I'm very happy with U1, I'm also in the process of a mortgage...- Bluebird

Approved Contractor List
Can you be forced to use an umbrella from an approved list, when you are already working through a different umbrella for a different contract? Thanks- Bluebird

Thanks for that - yes that all makes sense - I think I had an idea of how I wanted it to work which doesn't match up to reality - I did speak to Freeagent about this as well and they advised how their software would account for it so I presumed it was not something that hadn't been done before....- Bluebird
