Software contractor - Employed or Self-Employed.

Hello friends,

As an IT contractor running his own limited company and providing services to clients, is he employed or self-employed ?

This is question B26 in Section 2 of the Tier 1 extension application form.

I see different accounts and some say self-employed and other say employed.

Having looked at the below link, it appears as 'Employed'
