No more IR35 restrictions for IT professionals: Life is getting worst day by day

Petition Details

I want government to review IR35 once again as its affecting lots of IT professionals/small scale IT service provider companies. IT businesses are struggling to find outside IR35 contracts, bounce back loan has already been spent to survive, no business from EU after Brexit.

Additional Information

I am IT professional and had been trading through my Ltd. company since 2011. I had been off work due to COVID-19 for 9 months in 2020 i.e. no business/trading. How IR35 has impacted me

No lenders are willing to lend mortgagees since trading in business.

Bounce back help has already been spent, find difficult to repay instalments

Inside IR35 contracts end up take home up to 53%

Day by day family life is being stressed due to financial crisis

EU is rarely giving contracts to UK after Brexit
