    Moving abroad - who to notify?

    You only have to advise your accountant that your are leaving the country. You also fill out a form that says you're officially leaving and that you don't come under the UK Tax laws anymore. Put your LTD into dormancy (if you have one). I would not put in a forwarding address - it's not your...

    . . Germany - the taxman cometh

    a) No defense - everyone's jumping off a cliff and you follow? Rubbish. You're responsible, being stupid is no defense. b) I've worked in a foreign country and I still don't owe taxes there. I paid what was owed legally. c) If you're that easily persuaded they you should not be contracting...

    . . Germany - the taxman cometh

    It' not out of order - 'I didn't know' is no defense. Try this when getting HMRC over for a cup of tea to discuss anything.. I doubt that people who entered into these schemes would be willing to pay any money to any local government - which is entirely the point of how they work. Anyone...

    Apply now or wait till the end of contract?

    Depends really - I would wait until later on till you can get there within a week or 2. The mail storm is usually over in 2 days anyway (e-mail cv, reply, etc.etc)

    Pointless agents

    Is it that hard for someone to actually look at my CV instead of taking the shotgun method for mailing people about jobs? You've gone to all the bother of signing up to monster/jobserver or whoever and get a list of people. Please spend no more than 5 minutes of your time checking that people...

    Pointless agents

    Had another one this morning. Bearing in mind I've been working in Unix for large financials for going on 6-7 years... >> They are looking for someone with experience of Supporting Windows Operating systems and someone who is good with customers and staff. The salary range is negotiable but...

    ecrmpeople

    Hi, Anyone had any experience with ECRM people? I had an agent this morning trying to shift me a contract, and when I asked for location details he went all snotty and `don't worry then`. hardly professional - but what I have come to expect.
