Hello,
I have my own ltd company with 3 clients, 95% of my income comes through a public sector client with whom I have a contract, the other 2 clients I have no contract but do ad hoc work for. I've had QDOS check the public sector contract for IR35 status and they deemed it to be outside.
In my working practices I only use a client laptop as the customer does not allow 3rd party devices to access their systems, for calls I use my ltd company phone. I have a company website, insurance and all the other bits a larger limited company has, apart from I'm the sole employee. I work between home and the client site.
Currently I process my expenses (i.e. travel, subsistence, etc) as if I'm outside of IR35, but I'm not sure if push came to shove the HMRC would agree. If they did disagree, what's the outcome, paying the tax that would have been payable and a fine?
What's the recommended approach, I'm sure there must be lots of people who run their own limited companies whilst being the single employee?
Thanks in advance
