So - in a slightly surreal change of pace for me, it turns out that I am really quite good at painting and decorating, I completed a C&G course today for entry level 3 for the trade, and there is a possibility that I might have a day of work next week (helping out on trainee pay to get some experience and on the job tuition - and probably doing a lot of sanding).
If it all comes to fruition as planned, I need to register as self-employed with the HMRC as I'll be a contractor rather than an employee. I am not too scared about doing tax self-assessment as most of my 20 years as a desk jockey involved finances and book-keeping/accounting in some shape or form, I (at least mostly) know the rules about deductions etc.
Talk to me about being self-employed, and the registration process.
How difficult it is to go back to PAYE in the event of getting employment rather than being a contractor?
