Legal action / Mislead contract was outside IR35

[eek]

Like I said; Immediately there wasn't a problem. Gradually later in the year, as things progressed, people changed, things got tricky.

On the most part I operated as outside IR35, which in the end resulted in my contract being ended.

And they are getting away it. Also they really need to train up their incompetent staff on dealing with outside IR35 contractors.

No they don't under the new April rules the right determination is Inside IR35 and blanket bans on PSCs as staff cannot be trusted to keep less diligent contractors outside..

As I've stated on numerous times today - the new approach seems to be justified in soo many ways.

Sometimes contractor's are in a contract which on paper is outside IR35, however sometimes (sooner or later) they get in a position which can cause confusion. Sometimes it's obvious that it's inside, sometimes not so clear, sometimes it's outside at the start and things change later.

When I pushed back and operated how I should if I'm outside, it got my contract terminated. I'll admit and pay my taxes. Will the supplier own up to their mistakes and pay for them?

So the consensus here is that you find a contract that is outside IR35, you get the paperwork checked out all is fine.

You start working, you try operate outside of IR35 from day one. It's fine first few months but then later little things start happening and the Client is not respecting the terms of the contract.

At that point you call it quits, pay the taxes and the client gets away with it and cycle repeats. Damn life really can be unfair.

The moment you see things going south, you hand in your notice and walk. Then maintain your outside status till they walk you off site.

The thought of taking the client to court is faintly ludicrous. You could be doing that more than once in your contracting career.

This is now going around in circles and for that reason, thread closed.
