Think I'm safe on this one now biggrin I have an order which states I have to provide a system for a fixed fee paid monthly for x months. Also my company can answer no to virtually all Srebbe's first questions and yes to all the second set.
They're not my questions they're the IR's questions!

And they are still the IR's questions on self employment vs employment (IR56) NOT Working through an intermediary (IR35). Being self employed for IR56 does not mean you are outside IR35. All it would allow you to do is make some suggestion towards "being in business on your own account". Which might help.

It's true. The Revenue seem to have no concept of dichotomy and are quite happy to "have their cake and eat it" with you being classed as a "disguised employee" for tax purposes but self employed for all other purposes - the worst of both worlds for oneself and the best of both worlds for them.
