    As long as you don't get more than 24months you can claim travel - not that you'll be doing much

    Now my advice for those who Die
    Declare the Pennys on your Eyes

    If you drive a car - I'll tax your seat
    If you take a walk - I will tax your feet

    Should 5 per cent appear to small
    Be thankful that I dont take it all

    Cos Im the TAXMAN -
    Yeah Im the Taxman

    And you're working for no-one but Me ...

    They've been investigating me for about a year now and all I've heard off them in that time is: -

    1) Sorry you haven't heard from us for a while - the man investigating you has gone on long term sick.

    and

    2) Do you agree that all of your expenses in Manchester shouldn't be claimed as this was a permanent job? to which I said "no."

    If they decide they're going to shaft me, they will. Nothing I can do about it. And there's absolutely no point worrying about it if you're not being investigated!!! Craziness.

    Try and do things right, but always remember, you're in the big boys league now - if you're that scared of the tax man, close up shop and go back to being a permie.

    At least, thats my two pennith.

    I'll sleep better knowing you worry about it for all of us though

    Yeah I'll worry about it when they come knocking, and then I'll just say "wrong house".

    I know a contractor who voluntarily paid about 20 grand to them when IR35 first came out he was such a stress head. Absolutely bonkers, but that's the type of reaction they rely on.

    No they're not after me and have no reason to.
    They need a reason? Oh dear are you in for some surprises.

    Denny - are you being investigated or something?

    You seem to mention IR35 a lot, and I was wondering if that was because they were after you?
