Hi.
Hoping someone can help.
The main implementation date for the Client I am working for has moved. It now coincidences with a week where I have already agreed I will not be able to provide services (it’s my family holiday). I have it confirmed in writing that I will not be available during this time.
Today the Director of my client has asked what it would take for me to provide my services during this time. He is willing to pay for the cancelled holiday and an element of compensation to cover the fact I would have to pay more for the holiday later in the year.
Discussing with my family and husband understands that after 3 years I would like to see it through and we could move our holiday without too much hassle.
Question - is there any implications of my charging a client for a cancelled holiday and charging a premium for this. I have certainly paid this premium in the past to suppliers to get their staff to cancel holidays. Would anything they pay for the cancelled holiday be considered ‘income’ and therefore subject to all taxes?
Is there any advice on how to tackle this.
Many thanks.
