The agency has drawn up a contract for a gig to start which In currently having reviewed by an IR35 specialist. I received the contract on Wednesday which they want signed ASAP to enable me to be "set up on the pay system" in time for next week. Sent contract for review on Thursday and received a reply that it will be reviewed by close of business this coming Monday. However my start date is Tuesday, the following day.
I pre agreed a start date with both the client and agency to fit in with a handover from the previous contractor. However I already know that there will be amendments to make on the contract and there is no way that I will be able to get these done between close of business and the next morning!
What's the best way to deal with this? I already emailed my agency initially requesting more information and an amendment whilst the contract is being reviewed. The reason being that there are no payment frequency terms specified on the contract, which is odd and no schedule apart from a role title more junior and to what I had been interviewed for and what was advertised, but have received no reply. I'm feeling a bit dubious already but at the same time I don't want to annoy the end client....
