IR35 and your status
If you work for a medium or large client, they must decide your status and issue a status determination statement. For small clients, you decide. We review contracts and working practices and help you challenge incorrect decisions.
Expenses contractors can claim
- Travel and subsistence to a temporary workplace
- Professional insurance and subscriptions
- Accountancy fees, equipment and home-working costs
Pay yourself efficiently
Most outside-IR35 contractors use a small salary and dividends. Inside IR35, deemed payments apply and the numbers look different, so we model both.
Simple monthly packages. No surprises.
