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.
