Proof of Self-Employment for Client

    Have a UK consultancy client asking for proof of self-employment. They say they'd like a document from Revenue saying "nautilist with PPS# is self-employed". Not sure any such document exists! Any ideas? Is there anything which can be generated from MyAccount? Thanks.

    There isn't any such standard Revenue document type like this that I'm aware of. You can get a letter of residency via ROS but that's for DTA tax purposes and would confirm residency not self-employed status. You can get a list of registrations in ROS which shows the registration type, date and PPSN but again that's just a list not a letter of confirmation.

    Do you have an accountant ? If you do and they are on record with Revenue as your agent they can confirm that you're registered for self-employed Income Tax. If you have a registered business name or are VAT registered they might also help in evidence.

    That's what I suspected. (They're being paranoid because they were audited for freelance/employee fudging). I don't have an accountant currently, my tax affairs are pretty simple - retired, just earning a little extra to supplement my pension. Maybe I should consult an accountant if all else fails. The business name registration idea is good, and maybe the ROS registration list will do, will look into that. Thanks!

    You will have received a letter when you registered for income tax in Ireland called a "mandatory e-filer" letter. This was to tell you that tax returns must be submitted via ROS and states that you are registered for income tax etc.

    Alternatively, Revenue's Registration Section will be able to provide you with a letter stating that you are registered for Income Tax under Self-Assessment (they cannot say directly that you are self-employed) if you want. I would try the mandatory e-filer letter (or any tax return reminder) as getting the above letter from the Registrations Section will probably take a while.
