    Or weren't made aware because their client didn't tell them. I've yet to meet an accountant that can read minds. Some can barely read books.

    Assuming outside IR35, the accepted wisdom used to be that you set it to the point at which you qualify for the basic state pension without actually paying NICs (LEL I think?)

    No idea if that's true any longer.

    Salary level?

    Hi,

    Returned to contracting after a long hiatus. What are people setting their salary to these days?

    My accountant suggested 1,047.50, just wanted to check with you guys though.

    Another consideration, is that I already had an income of 38k on a self-employed basis in this tax year, before starting the limted company.
