Contractor FAQs
- Should I work through a limited company or an umbrella?
- A limited company often gives more control and can be more tax-efficient outside IR35. Inside IR35, an umbrella may be simpler. We help you compare.
- Who decides my IR35 status?
- If your client is medium or large, they must make the decision and give you a status determination statement. If your client is small, you decide.
- What expenses can I claim?
- Costs incurred wholly and exclusively for the business, such as equipment, software, professional fees and qualifying travel.
