4a. Take the contract, immediately hand notice in, find a new client and be a proper contractor.

Thanks,

Tristan

If you want to take the contract, you could:

1. Be inside IR35
2. Agree a fixed price contract and be outside IR35, or
3. Get an industry standard, e.g. QDOS, outside IR35 contract and actually use a substitute.

Probably a hell of a lot more straightforward to just finding a new client to contract with. Moving from perm to psc with the same end client will really expose you to considerable down side risk/uncertainty.

Read up a bit on IR35 first to get a basic grasp. There are links on the right hand side.
Then do a search using terms like contractor to perm or similar using the google search method here.

This has been covered many times and it's not complicated so have a look around first then come back to us with any more specific questions you have.
