Reply to: Payments terms and inside IR35 what is "normal" today ?

[dranzer01]

Also, if anyone is on inside IR35 and you tell the company to pay you weekly, MAKE SURE that the manager signs off your timesheets EVERY WEEK as agreed. If the manager is lacklustre in doing so and snowballs them, you will end up paying more tax as HMRC will be seeing all these timesheets and think to themselves 'what the hell is this? where has all this money come from...? 60%'

No there isn't - it's more like 0%.

I am sure apologies for mocking my correct prediction will be forthcoming

IR35 doesn't work but it's the only thing that is keeping a lot of people employed rather than being forced into self-employment alongside the offer of a few more quid...

Remember - as I continually point out but people never seem to grasp we aren't the intended target here merely acceptable collateral damage.

Are weekly or monthly timesheets more common nowadays?

Yes.

[dranzer01]

People seem to miss that there's the invoicing (timesheet) frequency and the payment terms of those invoices. They add up.

I submit my timesheet and invoices every Friday. I get paid the following Friday...

I've been able to negotiate weekly payments for the inside gig I start on Monday. I didn't expect it to work but I held out for 7 days from invoice (monthly) and they said they'd paid weekly.

"mea cuppa"
PG Tips or Yorkshire Tea?
or do you mean mea culpa?

Thing about using latin, especially when making an ad hominem point, is it makes you look really dumb if you get it wrong.


Yes I know I've probably opened myself up to having used ad hominem incorrectly, but at least I've spelt it right.

i was assuming fellow forumites would be familiar with the Latin hence the jocose syntax.

Abstineam - mea cunta

fair point - mea cuppa. Not sure why the slightly aggressive response but iirc that’s your ‘style’.

No worries.

Wasn't supposed to be aggressive. Just minimum words to ask the questions. Sorry. A case of my rep making something sound like it shouldn't.

[SillyPerson]

Recommend what? And how would that help if you are outside and the post is about inside?

I have had three inside IR35 contracts. Ive stipulated I want to be paid weekly. They then proceed to adjust the payments to suit my weekly remittance.

I have had about six outside IR35 contracts where I have stipulated I want to be paid weekly and they then adjust it to suit weekly remittance.

(All of these are different agencies ill add over the years)

[cojak]

They would simply be confirming that they are indeed a silly person.
