Hi,
I'm a contractor working for an IT company in Brussels and I have a Belgian freelance contract.
My accountant told me, in order to pay less taxes, I could subcontract about 30-40% from my salary if I find another person from my home country who is also having a freelancing contract and willing to invoice me. This is actually a fake subcontracting because the other person never worked for the project I'm working at, but the accountant said I could invent something each month, some module at which I worked at and the subcontractor helped.
He said he did this for several persons(about 20-30 persons) and I know he has a very good reputation throughout the forums and people go to him.
My wife also agreed to do this and we found a person willing to subcontract from our country, but I just don't know if I should proceed with this. She is very decided to go on with this and I really don't have anyone else to discuss it about because it's my word against the accountant's word(whom knows and has more experience).
I kindly ask you, to help me in this situation with a good advice of what is best to do because I have no one else with experience in these things to ask apart from my accountant who says everything will be just fine.
Thank you!
