Contractor secures hard fought IR35 victory
The PCG has today announced contractor Elaine Richardson has
finally won her mammoth 5 1/2 year battle wiht HMRC over her IR35
status.
Although full details are yet to be released, it is another
crushing blow to HMRC in a case that saw a potential IR35 bill in
excess of £50,000.
The key points to this victory, where Ms Richardson was
represented by Accountax, was that employment characteristics did
not apply to her relationship with her client, and she clearly
demonstrated that she was in business on her own account.
More details will follow.
