We worked on the IR35 test with Contractor Calculator.
The question about the Business Entity Tests has only been added to collect information, and does not influence the scoring. Contractor Calculator are trying to gather information that demonstrates that the BETs are cast far too wide and that many contractors who are outside IR35 are scoring high risk.

I imagine I'm just confused but surely working through an umbrella company lets you put a "no" in that box?
Any brolly's can't pay dividends because that would make it a Managed Service Company which isn't allowed.

The IR35 HMRC tax tests are flawed.
Have a search on the forums and read the long threads on why this is so.
The biggest clangers are:
1. That no business operates to lose money
2. Many businesses now operate from a room or even a desk in their home. This is because the nature of businesses has changed since the 70s.
