    Send them all the invoices, anything missing raise an invoice for it.

    Set them a deadline to pay all outstanding invoices.

    If nine received, send a Letter Before Action. 7 days to pay then court action.

    If no payment, state a court case through Money Claim Online (the court portal).

    Not sure what Citizens Advise will say...
    Just a quick other question regarding the invoices I'm sending to my previous employer - I've got the rest of the invoices ready to send. The employer used to deduct tax from my invoices, but with the amount I'm owed, should I ask him for the top line (pre tax), as I'm going to have to pay tax on the money I get it back from him?
    I hope that makes sense and sorry if this is a basic question.

    The main contractor is told by HMRC whether it’s 20% or 30% tax they deduct from your payments and pass on to HMRC, main contractor cannot deviate from this.  Once you get your self assessment in any overpaid tax you will get repaid by HMRC.
    Thank you so much, @comandgo . So essentially I should send all my timesheet/invoices over to them as I always did before, and even though they are behind, and it's their job to sort the tax out their end?
