    Child Maintenance Calculation For A Contractor

    It seems I have caused offence to some people from my post and for that I apologize. Yes indeed I'm a man who simply wants know where he stands financially given my ex had an affair, wanted me out to be with her new partner so it's my responsibility now to try and do what I can to remain in our...

    No To Retro Tax - Ongoing battle against S58 FA2008

    I too have recently moved house and am concerned that our friends with the time machine may well misplace my new address details. Can someone who has been issued an APN kindly confirm that this is visible in some way on the online self assessment web pages? Ta.

    No To Retro Tax – Campaign Against Section 58 Finance Act 2008

    MP: Seminar notes MP: Seminar notes As I understood the MP scheme, originally it was sold as a 6% fee plus a 4% loan from MP which would be repaid if the scheme was successful. In later years this changed to a 10% fee of which 4% would be refunded if the scheme was unsuccessful. I joined in...

    IR35 and Holidays

    Just another thought on this. If you know in advance of signing a new contract or a contract extension that you will not be able to supply services to the client on certain days, is it favourable from an IR35 point of view to put these days into the contract?

    IR35 and Holidays

    Thanks for the replies thus far. Perhaps, "the client's manager that I report to on a daily basis" is the wrong choice of words but I do supply software development and support services to the client and this involves daily contact with a representative from the client. I don't know how the...

    IR35 and Holidays

    I'm a contractor supplying development services to a bank and am operating correctly outside of IR35. My contract ends in November but a manager at the client site whom I report to on a daily basis is asking me to complete a management application with the days that I will not be providing...

    No To Retro Tax – Campaign Against Section 58 Finance Act 2008

    Think about it... Think about it... I too was disappointed yesterday but I wasn't expecting anything. I listened to the debate and started to actually get quite excited. The arguments put forward by Mr. Baker and several other MPs started me thinking that we actually might get justice on...

    No To Retro Tax – Campaign Against Section 58 Finance Act 2008

    Again, the question of morality crops up. I've just analysed my income and expenditure as I need to make some reductions on my expenditure because my income (contract rate) keeps going down (unlike the public sector): My mortgage is one where I need to seek advice from a Mortgage Broker in...

    Done Done Survey done. Email sent to MP and has confirmed that he will be sending his assistant. I have forward this onto Whitehouse...I feel it is the very least I can do to help support this campaign. The people running this are doing a lot of unpaid work on my behalf and I'd like to say...

    No To Retro Tax – Campaign Against Section 58 Finance Act 2008

    Morality Morality When the question of morality comes up, I always think about the following: You go up to any person in the street and say to them, "You can a) pay 40% tax on all the money you've earned or b) 20%. Both methods are legally fine. Which one do you want to do?" I can't think of...

    BN66 - Court of Appeal and beyond

    Thanks BB. I have emailed the letter to MP and will contact them on Monday morning. I have a copy of the appeal that was sent on 3rd Jan by MP so I'm pretty confident that it will be appealed in time. I just hope that incompetence does not take over and these guys show up!
