Hello @oli3,
Thank you for posting here in the Community. I'm here to share some details about applying IR35 legislation rules in QuickBooks Online.
The rule applies to a contractor/worker who provides services through an intermediary but is classed as an employee. There's an option to add them as a Deemed Employee instead of a normal one in QuickBooks.
You can select the IR35 legislation applies option under the Tax and NI details page when viewing the employee profile. For the detailed steps, here's how:
- On the left navigation bar, click Payroll.
- Click the employee name.
- Under Employee Settings, press Tax and NI Details.
- Below the IR35 section, select if IR35 legislation applies.
Also, I recommend setting up a separate pay schedule to create pay runs for deemed employees. This way, you can exclude VAT and avoid including them in submitting RTI.
For additional reference, I've attached a link you can visit to view useful tips about Off-payroll working rules (IR35): Off-payroll working rules (IR35).
Fill me in if you have additional questions about setting up IR35 in QBO. I'm always here to help. Take care always.
