Hi Folks, Not sure if this should be in business or accounting but figured anywhere except general for a sensible reply (please).
I am in the fortunate position of having more work than I can handle and so need to aquire another resource (both of us working on multiple projects at the same time). The contracts mean that MyCo wont get paid immediately as it's deliverable based invoicing but the person I have in mind will need to be paid monthly.
The idea is to pay them a resonable monthly amount (few grand) and then a 'milestone bonus' when I get paid.
Option 1: Ask them to go self employed (NI/PAYE is then not my prob?)
Option 2: Employ them and take a % to cover holiday pay but with no minimum hours so if they're not working I don't have the added overhead but do have to pay additional NI.
Option 3: Ask them to go Ltd and invoice for services provided (+VAT).
Currently FRVS but will go way over threshold if this takes off.
What would the panel suggest? What am I missing that could bite me in the ass later? (apart from the risk that the client doesn't pay me and I will still owe)
At least IR35 isn't a worry.
Thanks in advance.
