Having a business is hard work. You have to deal with a lot of different responsibilities, such as making sure that your employees are paid properly, paying taxes on their behalf and ensuring they get the correct benefits. Not only do you have to do this yourself but it can be extremely difficult if you don’t know exactly how employment law works in your country or state.

Quick And Easy To Get Started

The process of signing up with an umbrella company is quick and easy. You can start working with them as soon as your application has been approved, which only takes about two days. This means you don’t have to worry about tax returns, insurance and other administrative tasks that are usually associated with starting a business. As a contractor you can focus on getting the job done instead of worrying about those tedious details!

Easy Administration For Tax And Expenses

You can set up a personal bank account for yourself, which is ideal for paying your expenses. This means that any money not used to pay your employees in a specific tax year can be transferred from the umbrella company back into your personal account, and then paid out to yourself.

As an employee, you will be able to claim expenses related to working for the company on your tax return. To do this, you would simply provide receipts or other supporting evidence of how much each expense cost and how long it took (e.g., if you travelled by train).

You can also choose to receive your earnings through the Umbrella company so as not to run afoul of employment law rules about what counts as employment income in relation to IR35 legislation—the rules that govern whether someone is considered self-employed or employed when working through an intermediary such as an Umbrella Company or Limited Company.

No Need To Negotiate Fees With Clients

One of the best things about working for yourself is that you don’t have to worry about negotiating fees with clients. This can be a hassle if your client is not willing to pay what you think your services are worth, or if they decide not to pay invoices on time, or at all. Being an umbrella company means that we do this for you so you don’t have to worry about any of these things!

Help With IR35 Status Determination

If you are an individual who is working as a contractor, the first thing to do is check your IR35 status. It is important that you know whether or not your employment will be treated as an employee or self-employed status for tax purposes.

IR35 status determination can be quite complicated and it may take some time to get a definitive answer on whether or not IR35 applies in your case. An umbrella company will have experts who can help with this process and make sure that everything is done correctly so that there are no issues further down the line.
