IR35 Assessment Tool

This IR35 Assessment should give you a rough idea of what your IR35 status is likely to be. Of course IR35 is a complex piece of tax legislation and the IR35 status of any contract depends upon Contract Terms and Conditions and Individual Working Arrangements. This assessment should not be considered a substitute for professional advice. For more Information on IR35 and Contractor Limited Companies call Commonwealth Contractors now on 0800 294 4388 or complete a Retention Assessment Form and we will get back to you ASAP.
