Off-payroll working changes – Paying yourself through your company

Q. I’m currently operating a PSC as a limited company with a contract outside IR35. If my next contract post April 6th is inside IR35, the agency would deduct Tax/NI and pay a deemed salary into my business. How do I actually take that money out of the business? Would it be better to get them to pay me personally?

A. Please refer to HMRC’s guidance regarding how a company can pay itself where it is considered to operating inside of IR35 under the public sector rules from 06 April 2017. You could speak to the agency regarding being paid as an employed individual. Alternatively you could consider operating through an umbrella company whereby you are employed by the umbrella company itself.  Whether or not it would be better for you to be paid as an employed individual may depend on what future plans you have for your limited company in the long run.

    LOL! This muppet should be more worried about HMRC doing a retro tax grab if they stay in the same PSB doing the same role before and after the April changes.

    Getting his money out of his PSC after April will be the least of his worries.

I switched over to QAccounting a few months ago and haven't looked back. I get to speak to my own client manager and accountant, the prices were the best I had seen, and I paid exactly what it said online (no extra costs). Very happy with QA.
