Hopefully someone can explain this to me as I am unsure what I should be doing tax wise.
I am employed and registered as self employed also. I have all my paperwork sorted into files etc but have not had to fill in a tax return yet. I am getting an acountant to sort this out.
The thing I dont get is..........my mate gets lots of work from a letting agent and as he is not gsr he passes the gas stuf on to me. He said that he was told by HMRC that because he gets the work in and gets a 3rd party (me) to do it he needs to have employers liability insurance and that he can either sort out my tax or he can just pay me and let me sort out the tax. I am subcontracting to him so I dont know why he has to have employers liability?
Also if I am doing this do I have to get a CIS card or whatever its called?
Does anyone know the best way to work it? from both our point of views? or if anyone can explain how it works would be good, thanks alot!
