    Anyone got any real world examples (i.e. you are actually receiving expenses via an Umbrella) of Umbrella paying out expenses should as mileage, laptop costs, lunch, accomodation? I know this is subject to being able to demonstrate that you aren't under SDC (supervision, direction and control). Again anyone have experience how easy or otherwise this was? Who owns the risk should HMRC decide that you are under some form of control, you or the Umbrella? I assume its a personal liability?

    Many thanks in advance

    Doesn't make any difference under the new rules - you aren't getting expenses.

    Inside IR35 by end client determination = no expenses beyond those a company would pay an employee (i.e. one off travel to a site that isn't their main workplace)
