Pure Invoicing Limited – more details
The HMRC website states the scheme operates as follows:
- PIL invoiced the employment agency or end users for the work carried out by the scheme users.
- PIL deducted its fee from the gross amount.
- PIL then made one composite payment, of the taxed and untaxed amounts, to the scheme user.
- Part of the payment, equalling the NMW, operated under PAYE and was taxed under the PAYE reference 475/WB8816.
- The second part was the balance made under an ‘option grant agreement’ between PIL and the scheme users. This was not taxed.
