Assuming one does this above board - signed contracts and everything - what would be the best way to arrange it financially? Is it the same as renting a property out?
In our case I expect to earn enough that I can hit the upper tax threshold each year, but equally I could deliberately take less in dividends to accommodate other income sources, and leave more cash in the company.
My wife is a teacher earning ~£31k, and we don't income share or anything like that. Would it make sense to have rental/lodging income paid to me, or to the wife, or something else? It seems that my wife has a big chunk of lower-rate tax allowance she could use up, but then she'd presumably have to stop being PAYE.
