If your contract (and previous 4 extension) are deemed inside, you'd have two and a half years of insideness at one client. That's a lot of back tax.
However, I think you'd be able to get a claim in for 30 months of unpaid holidays plus any sick pay in the last 18 months as well as any other employee benefits that you might have been entitled to. Companies will soon learn that it's not in their interest to throw contractors under a bus.The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world that he didn't existComment

Originally posted by eek View PostNope - employed for tax purposes does not mean employed for employee benefit purposes (you can be the former and not the latter) so that back holiday may not be available.

And this is backed up by IR35 barrister Alexander Wilson (rightly or wrongly):
IR35 - Risk to Client / Business
The IR35 test is the same test as the common law test for employment.
That bears repeating: It is the same test. The legislation specifically lifts the common law test directly into the statute.
By unilaterally declaring that the engagement is "inside IR35" you will be unilaterally declaring that the common law employment test is met.
If an IR35 assessment is correct, the only correct assessment on employment status will follow suit.Last edited by PTP; 19 February 2020, 15:16.Comment

Let x=y
Multiply both sides by x:
x2=xy
(squared)
Subtract y2 (squared)
from both sides:
x2−y2=xy−y2
Factor:
(x+y)(x−y)=y(x−y)
Cancel out (x−y)
from both sides:
(x+y)=y
Simplify (Because x=y
):
y+y=y
2y=y
2=1
