RE: Live in care
Hi,
Workers who are genuinely self-employed are not entitled to the minimum wage.
For minimum wage purposes there are a number of factors to consider when determining whether a person is genuinely self-employer.
A person who has been assessed as “self-employed” for tax purposes may not necessarily be self-employed for the purposes of national minimum wage.
For more information please refer to: Calculating the minimum wage and Eligibility for the minimum wage
Thank you. -
RE: Transfer of HRP from me to my spouse (2008) - rejected
Hi,
Yes unfortunately child Benefit must have been paid for a child under the age of 16 for a full tax year in order for us to award HRP.
A tax year runs from 6 April to 5 April.
If you entered the UK on 11/04/2008 you would not have been claiming Child Benefit for the full tax year.
This means you would not of been awarded HRP for this tax year so there would be no available credits to transfer over to your spouse.
Please find the legislation below:
The Social Security Pensions (Home Responsibilities) Amendment Regulations 2008
Copies of this legislation can be obtained Online or from main libraries.
Thank you.

RE: Address for HMRC when paying NI class 2 from abroad
Hi,
Yes, that is the correct address to use for HMRC
Thank you. -
RE: Class 2 NI - 2023/24
Hi,
A business can choose any date as their ‘year-end’ when preparing their profit and loss accounts.
However I can confirm that liability to pay Class 2 and 4 NICs is based on the profit declared on the tax return for that year, regardless of accounting periods used.
Thank you. -
RE: How to check if employer is paying employer NI contributions
Hi,
The individual may set up a Personal Tax Account (PTA) which shows their National Insurance and Tax details.
To set this up please go to: Personal tax account: sign in or set up
Or they may wish to call our National Insurance Helpline on 0300 200 3500 – you could be there with them if needed.
The National Insurance Helpline will be able to check their National Insurance account to check if their employment is recorded and if National Insurance contributions have been paid.
