    Sajid Javid wasn't always quite so pro-IR35

    Who do you think they reckon is going to pay for HS2? :rollin::rollin:

    Agency quarterly submission content

    so anybody know how they ID'd the GSK contractors, past and present, to target them with threatening letters? If it's not on the agency return, I can't see how they are joining up the dots and figuring out who is where!

    Thinking of leaving IT over IR35?

    Definitely. If it all goes to hell to the extent that it costs me my house for example, begging for a perm job in some Central London cubicle farm is not on my list of desirable options. I prefer either leaving the country, or downsizing to a degree where OH and I can make sure we both never...

    Requesting client to remove "false" CEST result under GDPR?

    Similar to my position. Client's plan to use CEST to make an "initial assessment", which will almost certainly return an inside verdict. Professional review of my contract, lack of MoO and working practices, however, confirmed my view that I am outside. If I don't stay after March, I don't want...

    Direct and outside, to potentially inside

    Aha yes that makes sense. I am in the fortunate position of having only had a year via an agency during the last 5. The rest have been direct deals with the client. I would therefore have last appeared on an agency report over 3 years ago, and since then my NI number would only be on salary paid...

    Direct and outside, to potentially inside

    Same problem here really, if the "inside" contract was merely to finish the project that you've been working on all along, you'll be doing the same thing and I can see why that could be taken as a tacit admission that you have been inside all along. At least what I do is very niche, so it would...

    Direct and outside, to potentially inside

    True, but the PSC doesn't submit anything to HMRC regarding who its clients are. I guess the question I am trying to answer is "how could they know that I have been at ClientCo prior to my possible inside contract?

    Direct and outside, to potentially inside

    Not sure about that. If the client made the termination using the CEST tool and a large side order of risk aversion, the result could differ from your opinion of inside/outside, especially if yours was based on a professional contract review and assessment of working practices surely?

    Direct and outside, to potentially inside

    Hello all, Current contract is outside IR35 and direct with client (no agency involved). Client is assessing all contracts and aims to "make a determination" by the end of January. Given that they are quite risk averse, I am expecting that the determination will be inside IR35 and that they...
