    Good point TheFaQQer, if you are only have one place of work during the employment with the umbrella (in this case one contract) then that will not be seen as temporary.

      Thanks, that clarifies things more clearly.

          Ok I have asked the agency and as expected they said no to accepting the umbrella company I have already

          However, they have also came back an said that they have spoke to Parasol and if I fill out a P46 then I won't get heavy taxed and I will still get paid with my other umbrella company.

          Can any one confirm if this information is correct?

            No, it isn't - you would be obliged to complete section C of the P46 which is a declaration to say that you have another job - they would then have to apply a BR tax code (20% of everything) which may then be altered to D0 through a coding notice from HMRC if you are a higher rate tax payer

              That's true. Sounds a bit of a pain since I will then have to chase up to get my tax code changed again in 4 weeks!

                  Isn't that an oxymoron?

                    No. It's tautology.

                      an oxymoron is something like 'an honest politician'
