Hey folks.
Hopefully just a quick question. I've asked my accountant but his response sounded even dodgier (long story).
I'm employed FT as a permanent employee, I've got an opportunity to also do some contract work on the side.
Is there a simple, legal, cost effective way to have the income from the contract work paid to my wife instead of me, as she is currently under the tax-free threshold, and this contract work won't push her over it. I'm currently in a much higher bracket.
