    Cost of a losing an IR35 case?

    Wow, you've really been rattled by me haven't you? What isn't going to happen?

    Cost of a losing an IR35 case?

    So, investigation is started post April. Pre-April client says role is outside IR35, supplies an outside IR35 contract, and then 3 weeks later supplies an inside IR35 determination on role. That's misrepresentation from the client. In that circumstance surely the contractor has a case against...

    Cool, going with the "bedwetting" one are we? How close were you to the "time you went to bed" one? As I think the Caroline Flack suicide showed us the other day, perhaps if all the Internet warriors were a little nicer, then people wouldn't feel like that.

    Cost of a losing an IR35 case?

    So if a company asked you to sign a contract that is deemed outside IR35 (and they told you the role was outside IR35), and then later deemed you inside, who should be liable for the ERNI, and is there a legal claim to be had that the job was misrepresented by the client?

    QDOS Tax Liability Cover

    First of all I was well aware that going from outside to inside carries significant risk, I wrote that in my first post. I would not put myself in that situation unless I had insurance against it, hence my question. Still don't get how it could be that much, but I'm sure someone will be able to...

    QDOS Tax Liability Cover

    I invoice weekly, so no I shouldn't have, and I was given assurances that my role was safe - however what they meant was that I wouldn't lose out financially, not that it is outside IR35. The Programme Manager misunderstood, hence why the incorrect message. Look, I get that you get pissed off...

    Yeah, I'll ask the question. Doesn't look good though. Do we think that going from Outside to perm would be an issue as well?

    QDOS Tax Liability Cover

    I was seeing if anyone on here had already asked it, or knew, that was why? I will speak to them but some of the experts on here may know more about their actual policies, rather than just what they say to placate people. In theory, the "not taking a case on" and "tax liability cover" should be...

    QDOS Tax Liability Cover

    So I'm looking at it as percentage of take home, which drops from approx 74% to 66%, so in theory it should be the difference plus some interest for those 21 months. How should I calculate it?

    QDOS Tax Liability Cover

    So I have just been determined "Inside IR35". However, as a key provider the client has said they will happily pay me to parity with my current contract rate, so that I will not lose out financially if I were to go inside with them. I have been at the client for 19 months, which will be 21 by...

    When does SDA Matter?

    But the point is the legislation hasn't changed, has it? IR35 is still the same, it's just the responsibility for deciding it has changed from contractor to client. The determination that the client made to ask the agency to draw up an outside IR35 contract is the same as the determination that...

    When does SDA Matter?

    Which is where the legal question is valid - surely someone has been misleading other parties, and there is a case to answer?

    This agent will only let you sign their "Outside IR35" contract...

    When does SDA Matter?

    Sorry, yes role, not contractor - typing whilst on the phone makes my mind wander - I have been (unofficially) told I am in one of those roles, but I don't really know whether to trust what is being said, or just hand in my notice. I *may* hand in my notice now, with the "security" that if the...

    When does SDA Matter?

    So, is it the Client who has misled the agency, or the agency that has misled the contractor. Either way, someone has been misled to get the contractor to sign the contract...
