    Claiming carers allowance when IT Contractor and unable to work.

    It would appear that you are allowed to pay yourself around £6800 a year if you are self employed. I filled the online forms in and had to also post off my last published accounts. I await a decision.

    Claiming carers allowance when IT Contractor and unable to work.

    I already have the full entitlement so I'm not sure that really helps me much. I'll phone the DWP next week and see what they have to say on the subject. I expect based on previous dealings with them that if you are self employed and a director than there won't be much if anything in the form of...

    Must admit I hadn't got that far in thinking it all through. However I have some savings so I will probably just cut the PAYE. As you say I should contact the accountant about the PAYE. Thanks :)

    JRS and Single Director just finished contract

    Hi there, this is a question about JRS in relation to me and the fact that I am the single director and employee of a LTD company. Mid march the last client decided due to the virus and IR35 that they were terminating all contracts based on a 48hr notice period. This leaves me in the position on...

    entrepreneurs relief - Autumn Statement

    Well as I said I was already planning on kicking off MVL anyway due to various personal reasons. However in the last few days I put that on hold until I heard todays statement.
