i.e. go for those who will have to pay the most. Of course their hit rate is rather poor, but who wants the hassle?

Originally posted by BagpussThat doesn't appear to be true, low sallary seem to be first in line. I haven't yet heard of anyone drawing high sallary being investigated. Of course I've only heard of a douzen of people who have, but they all have the same thing in common.
Like, yeah, don't tick the IR35 box and pay all that tax and NI on the salary, simply pay yourself all the profits in salary and pay all that tax and NI instead!
That'll show the greedy, punitive ****ers!

Although not being investigated as such and nor am I in IR35 or out of IR35, the Finanzamt have, for the first time queried something. First of all they want to know what I do for a living and whether it makes me Freiberuflich (no business tax, Gewerbesteuer) or Selbständig (pay business tax.) That one is pretty much sorted by just giving them the first page of my CV. Next up is they are currently processing my tax return for 2005 and have questioned some invoices for May 2005 which was in fact for Jan-May. They've asked for all receipts, which they in fact have, so they can check to see if I should be claiming VAT in advance (don't ask!) They've got in a muddle because a lot of the receipts are for countries outside of Germany so no VAT there plus each month I get a retainer from an American firm for which I don't invoice but do declare. The only worrying thing is, is that the German tax man has wide sweeping powers and has a habit of knocking on your door in the early hours of the morning and taking every bit of paperwork (and computers) you have with him, and he don't need a warrant!

Originally posted by SallyAnneI think its a definate trigger like.
Plus, my expenses were so excessive! £1k a month for a flat, travel back and forth to Manchester weekly, travel back and forth to work daily, meals out etc - it added up to about £30k!
All legal, so I thought.
I'll just have to wait and see how it pans out.
