/ FAQ · before you ask

What people ask before they use FreelanceSnap.

01 Is the IR35 result legally binding? +
No — only HMRC's own CEST tool plus a tribunal makes a binding determination. FreelanceSnap mirrors the case-law tests so you walk into the conversation informed.
02 Does it work for off-payroll-in-the-public-sector rules? +
Yes — public-sector IR35 (where the engager carries the determination) is handled in its own track.
03 Will the take-home model match my accountant's number? +
Within ~1-2% for most cases. Edge cases (pensions, salary sacrifice, dividends, R&D) are flagged so your accountant can refine.
04 Is it suitable for sole traders as well as Ltd contractors? +
Yes — sole-trader mode is included, with the trade-off vs incorporating made explicit.
