IR35 is one of the biggest issues facing professional contractors, potentially posing a threat to both your income and your peace of mind. Sometimes it’s straightforward - a contract can clearly sit inside IR35 or clearly be outside. However, the majority of IR35 determinations aren’t straightforward and there is a lack of clear case law on the matter.

HMRC offer an IR35 tool, which they claim will give a binding IR35 determination. In practice though, this tool will only give a pass to the most cut-and-dry of cases. It is worth remembering that it is in HMRC’s interest to give an ‘Inside IR35’ judgement to as many contracts as possible – meaning more tax revenue – and to deter contractors from operating Outside IR35. Many contractors find the wording of the tool vague and unclear and a multiple-choice online assessment will inevitably struggle with the complexities of contractors’ working situations.

IR35 Public Sector Contract Reviews

The best way to ensure peace of mind and gain an accurate assessment of your contract’s IR35 status is to take professional advice. Unfortunately, law firms often lack IR35 specialists and hourly fees can generate higher-than-expected bills. Luckily for you, Dolan Accountancy offers a full IR35 review on any contract you take – and if you’re inside IR35, there’s nothing to pay!

Provide us with your contract and we well provide you with a specialist IR35 assessment within 24 hours. We charge £200 plus VAT for a comprehensive review, so that you can make an informed choice about your next contract and go to work without any doubts about your employment status. We will explain our decision, highlighting any key points as they relate to your contract and if your contract is boardline, we will provide constructive feedback to help you renegotiate the terms of the assignment to avoid IR35.

To show our appreciation for our existing clients, we offer this service at a reduced fee to anybody already using Dolan Accountancy as their accountant – only £150 plus VAT!

If you have any questions about your own IR35 status, or to book a specialist contract review, please call us on 01442 795 100 or email your contract details to sophie.lewis@dolanaccountancy.com.
