Hi all,
i am considering making the leap into the world of contracting, and wanted to understand if i am eligible for things such as working tax credits (we have 3 kids). i appreciate that may be down to what pay myself as a salary.
i hear talk from other contractors i have employed on projects whilst i have been a permie saying that 700 a month is the magic number, and i am able to claim all sorts of benefits.
does anyone have any experience of this and could they help explain? I went to the HMRC website and used their calculator and it said i was entitled to nothing based on my last financial years earnings in full time employment.
many thanks
James
