Can clientCo's employees claim home to work travel?
Taking TfL as an example, a pal of mine works for one of their suppliers and he's home-based. Travels to one of their London offices most days - all expensed.

Under the changed rules last year, for the duration of your contract, the main site becomes your 'permanent' workplace. You would still be able to claim for trips to other sites etc, in the same way as employees of clientCo would.

In the process of reading the guide and came accross this bit
How will business expenses be taken into account?
The five per cent allowance which is made for business
expenses in the normal IR35 rules has been removed for these
public sector arrangements. Needless to say, IPSE believes this
is extremely unfair. There is no allowance for legitimate business
costs such as accountancy and insurance. This is particularly
punitive as for many contractors these costs are necessary and
substantial. IPSE has pressed the Government to reconsider
these allowances.
The only allowable expenses are:
• the direct cost of materials used in performance of the
services; and
• expenses that would have been deductible if the worker had
been the client’s employee.
Now, having worked for a small consultancy in the past, on a 'Home based contract' we could claim travel and subsistence expenses when working away from our 'base' - Home Address. Therefore, if your contract with the agency and your co, stating your co's registered address, and the clients employees are allowed to claim travel and subsistence expenses when working away from their base location, i.e. at another client co's site, then is it not reasonable to be allowed to claim travel and subsistence expenses from your ltd co's registered address and the clients co's site as your base location when working through a limited co is always your registered address?
Discuss?

DOTAS/APNs are the blueprint, just look at the protocol being applied in that area.

I would point out that is not a great option (other changes in April make umbrellas more expensive than before) but it's the best deal if you want to pay largish Sums into a pension

Originally posted by youngguy View PostI'm not so sure.....look at DOTAS and other such things.
HMRC can spend the next few yrs sending letters out and chasing and that will be far easier than their current method of starting investigations.
Remember half of this is about HMRC trying to make themselves look better after underperforming for 2 decades.
And it was the working out of who to target that was time consuming not the triggering of an inquiry. That but is easy. And if it takes years for the investigations to play out hmrc won't care they'll just get their psychological department to ramp up the pressure
