Make sure you have your say against the HMRC’s plan to change Travel & Subsistence
Since the recent Budget, we have seen HMRC issue consultations, surrounding Travel & Subsistence that could impact the contractor market.
As a proud member of ‘All Umbrella Companies Are Equal’ we have been following the development very closely as a few members of AUCAE met with the HM Revenue & Customs recently to discuss this topic in more detail and to find clarification surrounding ‘supervision, direction and control’.
One thing that was made clear during this meeting is that since HMRC initial consultation was released only 3 individuals (contractors) responded with concerns to the changes, leaving HMRC to believe that any changes made will have a minimal effect on contractors, as we are fully aware this is not the case. A change to Travel and Subsistence will not only hold a negative effect to the Treasury and economy but the individual contractors as well. However with no facts to present to the HMRC, there is little that organisations like AUCAE can do and that’s where you can help.
With your help, AUCAE can work hard to ensure that Payroll Companies, Contractors and Recruitment Agencies voices are heard by the decision makers. All we ask is to take 5 minutes filling in the below survey ‘AUCAE National Contractor Survey’ put together by AUCAE and make your voice heard, with the hope that we can help shape the future for the contractor market.
