    IR35 in reality

    The way I work is usually outside IR35 (I do subcontracting, working from my own office most of the time, etc.), it's mostly the contract that worries me, not my working practices.

    IR35 in reality

    Yes, I had a contract which was a perfect example of being outside IR35, which was reviewed by the IR35 specialist. I've got a list of things to look for and usually go through all other contracts myself and get these things changed. Edit: I know it's not ideal, but I'll take the risks.

    IR35 in reality

    What I usually do is after working for some time for the client I tell them that I have to take care of some personal matters for a week or so and I don't really want the work to stop so I will subcontract someone I trust. This usually goes well. I get a contract signed with another person who...

    Accountant recommendation threads inc local requests

    Disappointed with NW Disappointed with NW I went with NW about 1.5 years ago. Everything was very good - my accountant helped me with lots of stuff and even managed to 'carefully' employ and split shares with my partner.

    Weeks worked per year

    Thanks fella. Your encouragement is very motivational and means a lot to me! I'll have a print-screen of this and will hang this by the pool. Thanks. I know, but as Françoise Sagan said: “Money may not buy happiness, but I'd rather cry in a Jaguar than on a bus.” It's still work, but I'd...

    Weeks worked per year

    It doesn't matter what it says in the title. What matters is what I said in my previous sentence, that "I did 142 DAYS". Anyway, I've got to work weekends sometimes and then I book double. I've been working for 2 weeks during Easter enjoying the sun by the pool in Southern Europe. I guess you...

    Recruiting a person who alreay has another job

    I don't have IR35 insurance. As far as I know a chance of being investigated is quite small. If I get a mail/email from HMRC regarding IR35 I will seek for legal help then. Tho I should probably look into getting the insurance. Thank you for your advice.

    Recruiting a person who alreay has another job

    NW sorted everything out :) We have got a couple of contracts signed by her to justify the percentage of shares. Do I pay someone to check my contracts? No I don't. LLM comes in handy :)
