HMRC will deem any contractor working through an intermediary as being under supervision, direction and control. Take a look at HMRC website and view the finance bill 24th March 2016, clauses 14 & 18 will explain this a little better than I have.

We will continue to work with Umbrella and PSCs.

Conversely I'm dealing with an agency at the moment who won't deal with limited company contractors, only brollies. Kick back protection I reckon.

Brace yourselves for yet another round of unintended consequences set in motion by the clueless fu**ers in our Government / HMRC (these two terms can be used interchangeably)

Probably because the contracts are IR35-friendly and they don't want someone fecking it up.

Ltd Only, No Umbrellas - Why ?
Interesting requirement I've just seen in an email from an agency ..
"candidate must have their own limited company no umbrella companies"
Never seen such a requirement before from an agency.
Any suggestions why ?Tags: None
