Hi,
I recently started a contract which the agent claimed was outside IR35. Being a cautious kind of person, and not believing anything an agent tells me anyway, I asked my accountant to do a review. They said the contract definitely is outside IR35. The question is, do I take what the accounts say as a green light to start paying divvys ? My accountants are well experienced in IT contracting (they advertise on here regularly), but at the end of the day it's just their opinion.
Another interesting point which the accountant mentioned was that 95% of their contractors were outside of IR35 - I was shocked by that number as I thought a lot of people would be caught by it.
Thoughts ?
Thanks !
