    Dividends and UK residency

    Simple question really. Having spent few years in UK I’m about to leave for good and need to take care of the sum sitting in the company bank account.

    What to do if you are currently with a Composite or Managed Company.

    So if I'd start a limited co. business with 2 more people, having 20% of the shares and not beeing the director, the company couldn't claim expenses incured by me working full time for the customer, because I'm not in the control of the company?

    Is it o.k to be Prejudiced \ Racist today

    Yep. Just simply being against any bloody stupid intollerant religion, and being open with it, doesn't necessarily mean I'm any prejudiced?? :rolleyes:

    PAYE employee

    Yes, sir, I'll do the research. Thanks for the reply though! I think this is the response to my question: (taken from Parasol's Terms and Conditions): "From the Commencement Date you shall be our employee and the date your continuous employment with us commences is the Commencement Date"...

    PAYE employee

    Hey chaps :wave:, it’s really a useful site here! I’m new to contracting in UK having a decent previous permie experience, currently in my second month with Parasol and thinking of forming a LTD later… I’m still not very clear about one thing – what’s the legal background of the position of a...
