    Hi, Newbie here

    Hi all

    After lurking for a while, though I would say a quick hello and thank you for all the informative posts.

    Just about to leave my first contract where I have used an umbrella and considering going ltd for the next gig because I have had several issues with my expenses being allocated incorrectly.

    Following the advice of the longstanding on here, I am about to start calling accountants to see how I feel. It is still such a minefield and I am still very new at this, but I guess I know a lot more than I did 3 months ago!!

              Welcome to the wibbly wobbly world of contracting.

              Read the ALL the guides on here. Then read them again. Then again for good measure.

              Yes it is a minefield out there, it's part of running a business.

              Good Luck.

              I look forward to your all knowing and likely sarcastic and unhelpful reply.
