Charging National insurance

[Returnofrros]

On landlord earnings/profit.

This unearned income nonsense again.

All income is "earned"....very few people are given it.

Surely only if NI isn't being paid through other earnings though? You shouldn't have to pay it twice and if landlord income is your only income you'd likely already be paying it through earnings from your PLC. If the landlord isn't set up as a PLC, and has no other income source via which they're paying NI, then there should be a way of making them pay it.

Not sure how it would work, I know a boy that has two properties he rents out, he does it at reasonable rates but cash in hand, he knows the people in his properties as friends for years so has a good relationship with them, making him pay NI would probably mean rent going up and possibly not being affordable to residents
