Originally posted by darmstadt View PostNope. In my case I submit an invoice to the company, they pay it into my bank account, I give all my paperwork to my accountant, they submit it to the Finanzamt, they send me a tax bill, I pay it. Actually I pay tax in advance per quarter at a rate which I agree with the Finanzamt and monthly for the equivalent for VAT (MwST) and come year end I either owe them or they owe me. Of course there are some other details but nothing quite so archaic or stupid as IR35. So basically in the long run all the money is mine except taxes (and some social contributions,) not need for salaries or dividends or silly little rules...Of course if you're a programmer or BA or PM then its a bit different as you need to pay other taxes, the difference between Freiberfulich and Selbständig (Gewerblich) and then you have GmBH and GBR and KG and...but still no IR35 which would screw me as I've been here nearly 4 years and still claim everything...

Tell them that you are unavailable since there is no work, and don't work.

Never done one - I believe that one of the permies at ClientCo fills them out on my behalf.

So your IR35 position can flip mid contact?

Filling in complicated timesheets is a pain in the arse, but as long as it's done in billable time it's a lucrative pain in the arse.
Keep calm and invoice!

Maybe you should put the new coversheet on all the TPS reports before they go out.
So if you could go ahead and try to remember to do that from now on, that'd be great.
