    Hello everyone :)

    Hello to everyone here

    I have been watching these forums for a while now, although I only registered recently.
    Yes, I am a permie now and my plan is to start contracting next year, sort of March / April.
    My field is C# , sql server, back end stuff basically.

    What I've done so far is gather as much information as possible
    - I'll go via a Ltd company
    - have my eye on an accounting company that offers contract reviews as well
    - read about IR35
    few other bits and bobs, what does it mean, what to expect, benching etc.

    I can't wait to start contracting and until I do I'll still spend time on here to keep up to date and see what happens really and what experiences people have.

          No queries yet, no.

          Just wanted to say hi and let everyone know that, I for one appreciate what people do on this forum.

          It helps people like me , who want to start on the "path of righteousness" and would be a bit lost otherwise .

          As for this being the wrong forum, I apologise for that. My time is spent in only 2 locations : Business / Contracts and Accounting / Legal.

            This subforum is a bit different from the rest of the site.

              Specifically.
              Yup, knowing full well what can happen ... having a hard chin is a prerequisite for contracting ( although it helps with many other things as well ).

                I meant the whole site, not just the General subforum. The advice one can find on this site can be extremely valuable.
