If you choose the wrong payroll method and are found to be not paying the correct levels of tax and National Insurance Contributions, HMRC is likely to immediately bill you for any lost revenue, to investigate you, and to prosecute/fine you. And following the 2007 budget, HMRC has been instilled with a new sense of urgency to prioritise compliance with this aspect of tax legislation. Contractors, clients and agencies are being targeted to ensure their full compliance.

Contractors working through Tarpon have employed status – with full HMRC approval – and do not need to worry about falling foul of the 'taxman'.
