TCC

They may defer from end of Feb to end of march but then blanket decision no sds when asked for one told that they did not need one We are being put inside due to a serviced contract and them not allowing a substitute Some have already declared they will leave others keeping powder dry but looking for other options They have now promised to arrange working from home and quote hmrc guidance that they will only I investigate fraud I am disappointed with them taking easy route by pretending to do an assessment but in fact giving every contractor working for them the same reasons with no evidence of how this was arrived at They say this is in line with other financial organisations such as Lloyd's HSBC etc Still surprised as their business model is based on supplying contractors for financial past business reviews Most of us are now even more cynical The prospect of being able to work from home has potentially worked with the mantra that the hmrc are not looking for us on modest £325 day rates they are looking for the really well paid contractor I need to work but dont want the liability of retrospectively being reviewed

Blanket assessment. No individual assessments, just the same email sent to all consultants across all contracts. “We looked at all our roles and they are inside IR35. We can’t take the tax risk, it isn’t worth it so our contractors can pay less tax”
