We look after all of your tax affairs and administration, payroll taxes and annual tax returns in the most tax efficient way for you for a fraction of the cost of setting up your own company and managing it yourself. We maximize your net take home pay. We free up your time to let you do what you do best while we do what we do best and save you taxes in the process.

We also see if you have already overpaid tax to date before taking up your new role.

What do you need to do?

On the basis that we consider what is the most tax efficient structure for you on an individual case by case basis, you do not need to consider this. We do it automatically for you. If your contract changes, we automatically review your tax structure so that at all times you pay as little tax as possible.

All you need to do are the following:

  • You fulfill your role as contractor.
  • You complete your weekly timesheet and email this to us at peter@icontracting.ie
  • You complete our monthly business expenses form if you incur business expenses

We look after the rest by doing the following:

  • On receipt of your timesheet, iContracting will invoice the agency/company for your services + Vat.
  • On receipt of payment for this invoice from the agency/company into your umbrella company, payment is processed on the same day to your personal bank account for your net wage plus expenses incurred.
  • Payslips are emailed to you by iContracting, showing paye, prsi deducted.
  • Paye, prsi and health levies aswell as Vat are paid over to Revenue as required by legislation as appropriate on the P30 and Vat 3 returns.
  • At the end of the year iContracting prepare and submit your personal tax return as required
  • You have the flexibility to change job and contract and still use the limited company
  • We provide your company with all required insurances – employer’s and public liability
