Umbrella and notice period
I often change timeframes in a way that I don’t think should impact the outcome of any advice received but should make me less easily identifiable in the event that someone were to go through my post history and put together a picture of who I am based on their knowledge of my work history (for...- sdd

Umbrella and notice period
Hello, My contract (managed by an umbrella company) is due to expire on 31st Jan. I’ve been offered and accepted an extension (start date 1st Feb). I’ve been with this client for nearly 24 months and this will be the fourth time my contract is extended. I’ve been offered another role at a...- sdd

Inside IR35 ‘tasks’
So is it still accurate to refer to myself as a contractor or should I be using another term? ‘I am effectively a no-rights employee’ might result in a few weird looks- sdd

Inside IR35 ‘tasks’
I am working inside IR35, and have received a new starter email telling me I must set up my intranet profile (I do have access to the internet) with information about me, ‘follow’ at least five ‘colleagues’ and write three sentences about how I have recently demonstrated living the company’s...- sdd

£70,000 perm or £500pd inside IR35 6 month contract...
I should probably have added upthread I've never had a Ltd company and have always used an umbrella, which might (or not!) go a bit further towards explaining my mindset! -

£70,000 perm or £500pd inside IR35 6 month contract...
There is a performance related bonus, but it's not particularly significant (5-10%) and it's apparently only given to very high performers so I'm not keen to take it into account. Thanks for calling the wage I've been offered tulip :P If you have any advice on how/where to get more I'm all ears! -

£70,000 perm or £500pd inside IR35 6 month contract...
northernladuk Thanks for the response. I agree that not being overly interested in perm benefits such as paid leave, health schemes etc. isn't a con. I think it made it onto that list because I'd much prefer if they scrapped them and increased the salary instead, but you're right, they aren't... -

£70,000 perm or £500pd inside IR35 6 month contract...
Pretty sure what answers are going to come back, but hey ho! Have been contracting for about 5 years. Currently on the bench. Have been offered a £70,000 perm role and a £500pd inside IR35 6 month contract. I have enough in the bank to not have to rush into anything. Perm role would be about... -

Confirmation Statement?
Thanks for your response James, feeling a bit better about it! Will still try to get an answer from CH so I have something on record. That's what I'm missing from HMRC as well.- sdd

Confirmation Statement?
Hi, I incorporated my company in January 2019. In January 2020, my application to strike off was received. First Gazette notice in Feb 2020. The company has never traded (due to a change of circumstances I remained in full-time PAYE employment). I was advised by my accountant that I had no...- sdd

Thanks for you reply. There is an option to remove the correspondence address which I have done, but the registered office address cannot be removed - only replaced. Cheers, Soph- sdd

Please help with registered address query
Hi, thanks for your reply. The reason I want to change it is because at the moment, if you type my name into google, my company and address comes up on dozens of websites on the first page. These websites (192.com, localbusiness.com etc.) seem to download a list of directors (and their details)...- sdd
